The National Housing Authority (NHA) has distributed P1.1 million in financial assistance to 39 families whose houses were damaged and destroyed by a recent fire in Caloocan City.
The National Capital Region-North Sector-Caloocan District Office led the distribution of the cash grants under the Emergency Housing Assistance Program (EHAP) to the fire-victim families from Barangays 22 and 49.
Each family received P10,000 to P30,000, depending on the damage incurred by their households.
One of the beneficiaries, Ricky Parcia Lodor, of Barangay 49, expressed his gratitude toward NHA general manager Joeben Tai, for the timely financial aid.
EHAP is one of NHA’s programs that provide quick response cash assistance to qualified low and marginal-income families affected by natural or man-made calamities to augment their funds for repairing their house structures.
