By Nash Tahang

BONGAO, Tawi-Tawi (August 20)- In delivering his social responsibility, Governor Nurbert Sahali attended on Tuesday the Tawi-Tawi Alliance of Persons with Disabilities (TAPWD) program and doled out a charity to 17 beneficiaries of the organization at the Beachside Inn and Restaurant here.
  
The beneficiaries were composed of adults and children with inborn defects. 

Just after his arrival from a trip, Sahali immediately proceeded from the airport to the venue of the activity on invitation of the organization.

He said that he was happy to have been invited to the program and witnessed the presence of many defected adults and children who tried to live their normal lives despite disabilities. 

Sahali also said that persons with disabilities are luck to their families and blessings from the Almighty. “They are special people that we should give special treatment and support,” Sahali stressed.  

He cited DSWD and DEpEd for their programs that provide for the support and assistance to the defected persons and also assured the organization of his willingness to aid TAPWA.
