Jisons to donate lot for Gawad Kalinga project
Another family is going to donate lots for the Gawad Kalinga housing project in the city.
City Mayor Jerry Treñas recently asked the Sangguniang Panlungsod for an authority to sign a memorandum of agreement between the city government and the Gawad Kalinga Community Development Foundation and Atty. Cornelio Jison, representing the Jison family.
The Jisons will donate 25,000 square meters of lot in Barangay Sooc, Arevalo for the Gawad Kalinga project.
The donated lot will serve as relocation site for the qualified recipients of the Gawad Kalinga Community Development Foundation. The lot is near to the present site of Gawad Kalinga project. Apart from the Jisons who donated the lot, several corporations also pledged to donate housing units for the recipients.
Jaro Archbishop Angel Lagdameo and the Lopez Group of Companies also sponsor Gawad Kalinga housing project in Jaro district.
Gawad Kalinga is also present in several municipalities in the province of Iloilo.
