Mayor
Tiu said that the funds derived from the annual
Alay Lakad are used for the skills training of
the out of school youth so that they could engage
in productive economic activities. The municipality
accounts for so many success stories regarding
the proper use of Alay Lakad funds, Mayor Roque
Tiu revealed.
This is the reason why the Alay Lakad Program
of the municipality is not only being sustained
but keeps growing bigger as the years pass, he
said. |
The
attractive raffle prizes are usually donations
of the generous sponsors and benefactors of the
out of school youth, he added. |
Meanwhile,
in Tacloban City, this year’s chairperson,
Mr. Eugene Tan, said that thousands of Alay Lakad
benefactors and supporters will walk from
four convergent points towards the Tacloban City
Convention Center in the morning of September

led by Tacloban City Mayor Alfred Romualdez and
his wife Hon. SP Cristina and the other City elected
officials. It will be participated in by the barangay
officials, officials and members of the civic
organizations and the youth sector. |
The

trainings and activities of the out of school
youth in Tacloban City. Particularly, the City
Government is giving computer lessons to out of
school youth to make them productive citizens.
