MANILA, Philippines – The FPJ Panday Bayanihan Party-list is sending close to 3,000 food packs to victims of Severe Tropical Storm Kristine in Camarines Norte through the help of their local volunteers.
This adds to the relief operations they’ve been conducting since typhoon Kristine made landfall last week.
Since then they’ve prioritized supporting their local youth leaders who have handed out hundreds of food packs and hot meals in Camarinas Sur, Laguna, and Batangas.
According to FPJ Panday Bayanihan Partylist first nominee Brian Poe Llamanzares, their organization received reports from their youth leaders across Luzon and chose to support them as they conducted their localized operations.
“I’m very proud of our youth volunteers. All the credit goes to our brave volunteers. They know the situation on the ground better than us. Thankfully, we were able to source funding in manila for their local volunteer operations,” he said.

Poe-Llamanzares explained that this is exactly what FPJ Panday Bayanihan encourages.
“Since 2013 we’ve been supporting relief operations across the country. I’m so happy to see our youth leaders stepping up to support our fellow Filipinos. This is exactly the spirit of bayanihan we wish to encourage.”
