THE Pateros Municipal Government, in partnership with the Office of the President, has successfully rolled out the third tranche of the Bawat Bayan Makikinabang National Rice Subsidy Program to help families cope with daily food costs.
The initial leg of the distribution took place on October 7, 2026, at the Pateros Elementary School Gym, led by Mayor Gerald German alongside key municipal officials and program partners, including MSWDO Marilyn Palmero, GSO Tony Samaniego, Councilor Allan Dela Cruz, Administrator Angelus DP Ponce, SDO Bojic Raymundo, LYDO Ryan Millares, Barangay Affairs Coordinator Nap Dionisio, and TEU Chief Venancio Tolentino.
To accommodate those who missed the main schedule, the local government has scheduled a follow-up distribution for unclaimed benefits on October 9–10, 2026, from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. at the Municipal Social Welfare and Development Office (MSWDO) located on the ground floor of the Pateros Municipal Hall.
Beneficiaries are reminded to bring their Rice Subsidy Card and a valid ID. For authorized representatives, requirements include their own valid ID, the beneficiary’s valid ID, and the Rice Subsidy Card.
Local officials remind residents that unclaimed subsidies within the designated period will be forfeited.
Mayor German reaffirmed the administration’s commitment to delivering efficient, compassionate, and direct assistance to ease the financial burdens of local households.
Residents are advised to monitor official municipal channels for updates on future relief programs.
