The Tres Agrarian Reform Beneficiaries Farmers Association Inc. in the province of Cavite renewed its contract to supply the required agricultural products of the Taiwan Fund for Children and Families (TFCF) for its childcare program to improve maternal, infant, and child nutrition in the Philippines.
James Arthur T. Dubongco, Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR) Provincial Agrarian Reform Program Officer II in Cavite said the first Memorandum of Agreement was signed last year between Danilo Arnes, President of the Tres Agrarian Reform Beneficiaries Farmers Association, Inc., and Kai Li Chang, TFCF Philippines Branch Director.
“This partnership has assured the agrarian reform beneficiaries (ARBs) of the association of a steady market for their products and opened up opportunities to further expose their products to other target consumers,” Dubongco said.
He said the association will continuously supply their harvested agricultural products to the TFCF, including root crops, fruits, and vegetables.
TFCF is an international non-governmental organization established 73 years ago that dedicates itself to providing support to vulnerable children and their families.
TFCF has its main headquarters in Taichung, Taiwan, and its corresponding Philippine branch is located in Mandaluyong. It boasts of remarkable achievements in helping underprivileged children and families in around 34 countries, including Mongolia, Vietnam, Cambodia, and Jordan.
