During the recent calamity, the evacuation center became not only a safe place but also a place where essential health and nutrition services were extended to affected families. To address the needs of the most vulnerable, complimentary food were distributed to children aged 6 months and above, along with Micronutrient Powder (MNP) to help prevent malnutrition and ensure proper growth during this period of time. Health check-ups were conducted for evacuees to monitor their condition and provide immediate medical care when needed. Adults were also given MNP to help strengthen their immunity and maintain adequate nutrition despite the difficult circumstances.

Recognizing the urgent need for safe drinking water in evacuation sites, families received jerrycans and Aquatabs, ensuring that potable water is available and reducing the risks of waterborne diseases. These combined interventions emphasize the commitment to safeguarding the health, nutrition, and overall well-being of both children and adults amidst disaster situations. More than just relief goods, these services serve as a reminder that even in times of crisis, the health and future of every family remain a top priority

“Breastmilk ay GINTO”

The Local Government Unit of San Mariano through the Municipal Health Office, in partnership with the Provincial Health Office of Isabela and the Cagayan Valley Medical Center, spearheaded the celebration of Breastfeeding Month on August 19, 2025, at Barangay San Jose, San Mariano, Isabela with the conduct of the main activity “Breastmilk ay GINTO (Gatas ay Ibahagi ni Nanay Tungo sa Optimal na Paglaki ni Baby).”

At the heart of the celebration was the Milk Letting Activity, which embodied the true essence of “Breastmilk ay GINTO.” Like gold, breastmilk is a priceless and irreplaceable resource, rich in nutrients and antibodies that protect babies from diseases while ensuring their optimal growth and development. Through milk letting, breastfeeding mothers generously shared this golden gift, extending nourishment and hope to infants in need.

Other activities conducted were:
• Health and Nutrition Stations where pregnant and lactating women joined interactive learning games and received prizes.
• HIV Counseling and Testing to promote awareness and early detection.
• Family Planning Services for responsible parenthood.

The celebration emphasized that breastmilk is more than just nourishment, it is life-saving, love-filled, and truly a golden investment in every child’s future.

Thank you to all the donors🩷
