Poverty During the Pandemic
Poverty has always been a problem in the Philippines even before the pandemic struck. And now as the virus spreads across each region in the country, the situation of the impoverished sector is now worsened. Throughout the crisis, more and more people are now rallying for help and begging for alms in the street. As small enterprises and businesses have closed to prevent the spread of the virus, the poor have also lost their only source of livelihood. Reality has already made it harsh for these people to make a living and the pandemic has made it worse. This leads us to the question, "What can we do in order to change their situation for the better?"
