Aside from bringing honor for the country as a professional boxer and pushing on legislative concerns for the Province of Saranganni, Manny Pacquiao is also one of the spokesperson and ambassador of Habitat for Humanity. And last January 5 he renewed his commitment with the organization and pushing for the Habitat for Humanity Philippines “We Build” project as it started last year.
Manny also donated Php 5- Million, which will be used to partially fund 195 houses for families in Glan, Sarangani. In the Pacman-Tata Yap Ville in Barangay Tango in Glan, a housing project of the congressman mostly composed of fisherfolk and sari-sari store vendors will be benefiting on the said project.
Each duplex unit is 32 square metres on an 80-square metre lot area. The 2.8-hectare site includes a multipurpose centre, a community park and a concrete stage that can be used for community’s special events.
Pacquiao also announced plans to purchase more land for permanent houses, much to the delight of his constituents.
