Response to your request

Unfortunately, this is not a valid Freedom of Information (FOI) Request. Thus, we are constrained to deny your request.

Regarding your concern, you may request your barangay that you be included in the SAP because it is your barangay which finalizes the SAP list. Also, the Department of Interior and Local Government has already ordered each barangay to publish the SAP beneficiaries. Thus, you could inquire at your barangay regarding this matter.

Further, you may also wish to direct your other concerns to the DILG by submitting a request to them via this portal. You may also contact them by telephone at 8876-34-54 or fill-out the form located at their Public Assistance Center page at https://www.dilg.gov.ph/public-assistance-center.

Further still, you may check with Grab itself because it also submitted a list of drivers. They may have put you on the list of Grab driver-beneficiaries.

However, you may also contact the DSWD Social Amelioration Program Hotline Numbers at telephone  number 16545 or by cellular phones through calling 09474822864 (Smart), 09162471194 (Globe) or 09329333251 (Sun) or texting 09189122813 or by e-mail at [email protected] to inquire about your concerns and/or report irregularities about the Social Amelioration Program brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic.
