MANILA, Philippines — Families displaced by a fire in Mandaluyong’s Barangay Addition Hills received aid from Sen. Bong Go on Tuesday.

“I have been returning to Addition Hills countless times when fires hit this place, since houses are so close together,” Go said.

Up to 107 families received financial aid, food packs, snacks, vitamins, water containers, shirts, fans, basketballs and volleyballs.

Select beneficiaries received shoes, a bicycle, a mobile phone and a watch.
