Department of Social Welfare and Development(DSWD)

Hello. I would like to ask for a financial or medical assistance for my immobile and ill grandmother. She needs medicines and a  nutritional supplement in a form of milk and we can't afford it. I'm a student and currently looking for a job and I'm afraid my earnings would still be not enough. Getting a financial help would literally extend the life of my grandmother. I hope that you can help us.
