The Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps) beneficiaries will use Automated Teller Machine or ATM cards soon. The 4Ps is a poverty alleviation program of President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo that gives cash assistance.
Beneficiaries can now get their allowances at their most convenient time. Those with approved documents have claimed their cash subsidies from Land Bank of the Philippines intended for family health needs, education of children among others. Meanwhile, ATM cards are on process with the bank.
Also known as the Conditional Cash Transfer Program, Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program “works to address the structural inequities in society and promotes the human capital development of the poor, thus working to break the intergenerational cycle of poverty.” (PIA)
