TACLOBAN CITY — Hundreds of residents in Barangay 74 Lower Nula-tula gathered at their local covered court on September 24, 2026, to access free government services brought directly to their neighborhood through the city’s flagship "I Love Tacloban" Barangayan initiative.
Free Community Services and Medical Outreach
Organized by the City Government of Tacloban to eliminate financial and logistical barriers for local families, the outreach drive offered a wide range of essential health and public care services:
Medical Check-Ups: Local health workers provided free diagnostic consultations, health screenings, and wellness checks for children, adults, and senior citizens.
Prescription Medicines: Beneficiaries received essential maintenance medications, vitamins, and prescribed treatments at zero cost.
Personal Care: Local volunteers provided free haircutting services for community members and young students.
Bringing Public Governance Closer to Communities
The localized outreach program reflects the city administration's commitment to decentralizing public assistance and improving healthcare access across Tacloban's 138 barangays:
Direct Community Impact: By bringing medical professionals and social services directly into neighborhood covered courts, the program ensures vulnerable households receive timely assistance without traveling to the city hall or regional hospitals.
Sustained Municipal Coverage: The City Government of Tacloban plans to continue rolling out the "I Love Tacloban" Barangayan caravans to deliver basic health, social, and civic resources to more urban and rural villages across the city.
