Over 1,000 young individuals seeking to earn income attended the orientation for the beneficiaries of the Special Program for the Employment of Students (SPES) held at Vista Mall Trade Hall in Barangay Ususan, Taguig City on November 20, 2024.
The program is spearheaded by the City Government of Taguig in cooperation with the Public Employment Service Office (PESO) and the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE).
The fourth batch of SPES beneficiaries will be provided part-time jobs that can aid in their educational expenses.
Taguig City Mayor Lani Cayetano encouraged the beneficiaries to give their utmost effort and treat the program as a valuable experience.
"We want to continually provide opportunities for our students to learn, gain access to programs, and attain additional financial assistance to support their studies," Cayetano said.
She urged them to take advantage of these opportunities for their growth and to realize their dreams.
