A CLEAR VISION, A FLOWING FUTURE: Today's Big Leap for Iloilo

The ripples of progress were felt across the Province today at the Water Stakeholder Summit. A major highlight was the Ceremonial Turnover of Funding for the construction and improvement of water systems across 12 of our local communities. Supported by the MoRProGRes Iloilo initiative and partners like Catholic Relief Services (CRS), these projects, funded under the 20% NTA CY 2026, are a giant leap toward ensuring SAFE, CLEAN, and RELIABLE water for every household.

This investment is about more than just pipes and pumps; it’s about building a healthier, more resilient future for our families and neighbors. When we empower our barangays with essential resources, the entire province moves forward together. Cheers to the leaders and stakeholders turning this vision into a reality. Padayon sa Pag-uswag!
