“Para maka-ahon sa kahirapan, ang sandata ay kaalaman.”
“Para maka-ahon sa kahirapan, ang sandata ay kaalaman,” Gozos said.
“Ang bawat pamilya, dapat may college graduate. Tungkulin ng gobyerno na sigurihin ito. Buong scholarship hanggang graduation, hindi lang kakarampot na allowance na kapos pa kahit sa isang semester,” he stressed.
On July 18, Gozos is set to visit Barangay Banay-Banay 2, San Jose, Batangas to continue the distribution of educational assistance.
“Patuloy po ang ating suporta sa mga mag-aaral na nagsusumikap hanggang maabot nila ang kanilang mga pangarap,” he concluded.
