The Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO), Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA), and the Quezon City Local Government Unit joined forces to provide immediate relief to around 2,000 families displaced by a fire in Barangay Pinyahan, Quezon City. The assistance followed the directive of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. to deliver prompt aid to affected residents. PCSO General Manager Melquiades A. Robles, Mayor Joy Belmonte, and MMDA General Manager Nicolas Torre III led the distribution of 2,000 “Charitimba” buckets containing food and essential supplies, along with modular tents for temporary shelter. The fire, which reached Task Force Bravo status, destroyed homes along NIA Road and forced thousands of residents to evacuate to several centers. Local officials said the coordinated relief effort aims to support displaced families as they begin recovery.
