PWD Resident Required to Personally Claim Cash Aid at DSWD Office

A PWD resident expressed his disappointment towards some workers who required him to personally claim the cash aid at the DSWD office.

A Facebook user named Roy Moral has expressed his dismay after he was required to personally claim the cash aid at the DSWD office instead of delivering the social amelioration cash to him.

Roy Topacio Moral, a resident of Pob. I-A Imus, Cavite is suffering from a disease called Ankylosing Spondylitis Venous stasis ulcer. He is fully qualified to receive the financial assistance given by the government.

However, the Department of Social Welfare and Development did not deliver the cash aid to Roy’s house knowing that he is a disabled person. Roy gave an authorization letter and his medical records to his wife to get the cash assistance but DSWD personnel refused to give the money.

The agency allegedly required the physical presence of the beneficiary when distributing the cash aid.
