Former Vice President Leni Robredo has expressed gratitude to senatorial candidate Erwin Tulfo for his consistent efforts to support the Bicol Region, particularly Naga City, and for his effective collaboration with the Angat Buhay Foundation, especially during his time as Secretary of the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD).
Tulfo visited Robredo at her residence in Naga on Saturday, following a market tour at the Naga People’s Mall—the city’s main public market—where he received a warm welcome from residents. Robredo hosted Tulfo for a hearty lunch, personally welcoming him to her home.
During their meeting, Robredo thanked Tulfo for his proactive assistance to Bicolanos and his support for Angat Buhay, the non-government organization she founded focused on poverty alleviation. She particularly cited his help during calamities.
She recalled the swift response from Tulfo and the ACT-CIS party-list during Typhoon Kristine, when they donated 2,000 sacks of rice and P1 million in cash assistance to the victims.
