BOTOLAN, Zambales (PIA) — About 252 Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps) beneficiaries in Zambales undergo digital financial literacy orientation during the regional rollout of the E-Panalo ang Kinabukasan program of the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD).
DSWD Assistant Secretary for the Conditional Cash Transfer Group Marites Maristela said the initiative aims to equip participants with the knowledge and skills needed to navigate digital financial transactions securely and efficiently.
“This program seeks to empower families by providing digital tools that make it easier and more secure to receive and manage government assistance—especially for those living in far-flung or underserved communities,” she added.
Orientation attendees were from the municipalities of San Marcelino, Botolan, and Iba.
After completing the orientation, the 4Ps beneficiaries received mobile phones, giving them access to safer and more efficient ways to manage their cash grants through digital wallets.
The E-Panalo ang Kinabukasan program is in partnership with Globe Telecom, GCash, BPI Foundation, and Ayala Foundation. (CLJD/RGP, PIA Region 3-Zambales)
