Pueblo de Oro celebrates the value of hard work

PUEBLO DE ORO Development Corporation (PDO) recently recognized the value of hard work by extending additional livelihood assistance to dedicated residents of Pampanga who have shown perseverance in sustaining their micro-businesses.

The beneficiaries are graduates of the "Kabalikat sa Negosyo" livelihood training program, in collaboration with the ICCP Group Foundation, Inc. (IGFI), the social development arm of PDO for its host communities in Barangay Del Carmen, San Fernando, Pampanga. Kabalikat sa Negosyo is an ongoing training program that started in 2021 and to date has helped around 120 individuals who are mostly women in Sto. Tomas and Malvar, Batangas, and San Fernando, Pampanga.

Operating home-based eateries, these beneficiaries have demonstrated commendable work ethic, resilience, and aptitude, as observed during IGFI's regular monitoring visits. Their efforts have allowed them to maintain their small businesses, providing a steady source of income for their families.

Pueblo de Oro and IGFI hope that this additional livelihood assistance will enable these beneficiaries to further grow their businesses and serve as inspirations to other members of their community.
