Hi! 

I am Nica Rhiana Hanopol, journalism student from the University of the Philippines Diliman. I would like to request information regarding the database of families accepted as beneficiaries in Gawad Kalinga Munting Pamayanan Village. This is for a research project in Data Journalism, under Professor Yvonne Chua. I would appreciate it any format, but I would prefer it if you can give it in xls format. 

Thank you and I hope to hear from you soon!

Dear Ms. Hanopol:

You requested for the “database of families accepted as beneficiaries in Gawad Kalinga Munting Pamayanan”.

Unfortunately, the DSWD does not have this information. Although the Gawad Kalinga Community Development Foundation Inc. (“Gawad Kalinga”) once had a partnership with DSWD once, this partnership ended in 2014.

Consequently, we are constrained to deny your request.

You may wish to consider directing your request to Gawad Kalinga instead. 

Very truly yours,

Carlo Florendo C. Castro
