President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. on Friday visited Katutubo Village Elementary School in Porac, Pampanga, to oversee the distribution of government assistance and the rollout of new internet connectivity initiatives for Aeta students.
During his visit, the President observed Grades 1 to 3 classes at the school in Barangay Planas and personally led the distribution of Brigada Backpacks to 127 students. He also turned over two Starlink satellite units to provide the school with reliable internet access.
To further support the community, the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) served meals to students through its mobile kitchen, while President Marcos directed the Department of Health (DOH) to conduct a medical mission to address health issues among schoolchildren — particularly those with cleft lip and palate.
Before visiting the school, President Marcos distributed carabaos and farm implements to Aeta families in Porac as part of the government’s livelihood assistance program. He also announced that nearly 1,200 beneficiaries from Barangays Planas and Camias would each receive ₱10,000 in cash aid from the DSWD.
