“𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐀 𝐌𝐎, 𝐀𝐋𝐀𝐆𝐀𝐀𝐍 𝐊𝐎” Program was made possible through the initiative of our beloved Mayor, Honorable Roberto O. Palomar and His wife Mrs. Milagros Roa Palomar in collaboration with the Municipal Social Welfare and Development Office (MSWDO) headed by Engr. Josie Cambel, Office of the Senior Citizens Affair (OSCA) headed by Mrs. Esmeralda Dayalo and the Federation of Senior Citizen’s Association of the Philippines (FSCAP) headed by their President Mr. Romualdo Garbo.

For Senior Citizens, clear vision isn’t just about seeing; it’s about living. It’s about recognizing the faces of loved ones, enjoying the beauty of nature, and maintaining independence in everyday life. It’s about continuing to learn, grow, and engage with the world around them. We understand that vision changes can be a significant challenge for our elders, impacting their ability to participate in activities they love and enjoy the simple pleasures of life.

We believe that everyone deserves the chance to see clearly, to experience the joy of vibrant colors, sharp details, and the faces of those they cherish. We want to empower our Senior Citizens to live fulfilling lives, free from the limitations of poor vision.

“Seeing the world clearly is a gift, and we believe everyone deserves that opportunity.”
