Mayor Nestor Archival, together with Department of Social Welfare Services (DSWS) head Portia Basmayor, personally led the distribution of aid at Cebu City Hall, ensuring that beneficiaries who were not covered during the initial rollout received their assistance.

The latest payout benefited 189 recipients from 13 barangays, including Inayawan, Guadalupe, Tisa, Tinago, Tejero, Mambaling, Talamban and Kalunasan. Homeowners affected by the disasters received P20,000 each, while renters were granted P10,000.

The additional funds were secured by the Cebu City Treasurer’s Office to address shortages encountered during the first phase of distribution, which had been constrained by limited resources.
