 As part of the program, President Palmer introduced the missionaries of the La Oag Philippines Mission and explained to the audience that they are not only in the area to teach and preach about the gospel of Jesus Christ, but also on a mission to extend a helping hand to those who need it. The office of Ilocos Norte Governor Matthew Monotok also provided manpower to help with the logistics of the donated items, including free delivery to the farms of farmers who cannot transport their shares back to their respective locations.
