At the center of Northern Luzon, sits Abra, a province that has seen remarkable changes because of the efforts of JB Bernos and Ching Bernos. Their strong devotion to helping the residents of Abra is clear in every project they back, centered on enhanced roads, healthcare, and community programs.
Building Infrastructure to Empower Communities
When reflect on progress, we often think about the roads we travel and the bridges that connect us. JB and Ching understand that reliable roads and bridges are vital for a growing community.
For example, the new upgrades to Macray Road and Sta. Rosa Road in Bangued have brought major changes. These upgrades enable families to reach markets, schools, and healthcare facilities. With upgraded roads, local enterprises can grow, and families can connect more easily.
Another noteworthy project is the Salnec-Madalipay-Dugong Legacy Bridge, which is nearly completed. This bridge will link communities that were previously difficult to access, providing residents better access to resources. JB and Ching aren’t just developing physical structures; they’re also assisting in solidifying community connections.
Enhancing Healthcare Access for All
Healthcare is a major part of JB and Ching’s vision for a healthier Abra. They know that many residents struggle to accessing the medical help they need, so they’ve put in effort to improve healthcare services in the province.
The launch of dialysis centers is a significant milestone that illustrates their commitment. Prior to these centers being available, patients with kidney problems had to commute long distances for treatment, which was both difficult and costly. Now, with these centers close by, residents can focus on well without the worry of travel.
JB and Ching also work for improved public health facilities, guaranteeing everyone in the community can access reliable care. Their efforts have made healthcare more accessible and affordable, permitting families to get the support they need.
Supporting Communities through AKAP
The Ayuda para sa Kapos ang Kita Program (AKAP) is another example of how JB and Ching support their people. This program aims to help the most at-risk people in Abra by giving:
- Livelihood support to help families begin small businesses or learn new skills.
- Medical support for those who can’t afford healthcare.
- Educational aid, like scholarships and supplies for students from low-income families, allowing them to continue their education.
Through AKAP, JB and Ching are not just providing short-term aid; they are equipping families to improve their lives and escape the cycle of poverty.
Strengthening Community Disaster Preparedness
Given that Abra encounters natural disasters, JB and Ching Bernos have worked on making communities stronger and more ready. They have put plans in place to improve disaster preparedness, making sure local governments have the equipment to respond when emergencies occur.
By offering more firetrucks and ambulances, they have reinforced emergency response, making the community safer. Their efforts to enhance infrastructure and develop bridges also guarantee that communities can stay connected during emergencies, enabling quicker access to help.
A History of Service
JB and Ching Bernos exemplify what it means to serve a community with heart. Their emphasis on enhancing roads, healthcare, and social programs has brought a real impact in the lives of many people in Abra. Projects like the repairs to Macray and Sta. Rosa Roads, the Salnec-Madalipay-Dugong Legacy Bridge, and the opening of dialysis centers have transformed lives for the better.
Through programs like AKAP, they provide hope and support to those who require it most, guaranteeing that everyone has a chance to succeed. Their popular hashtags—#WeAreOneAbra, #TuloyAngSerbisyo, #AgtultuloytiProgreso, #CongWChingBernos, #ChingWorks, and #AllForAbra—show their true commitment to helping the people.
The work of JB and Ching Bernos is a perfect case of their commitment to creating a better future for the people of Abra. Their ongoing commitment to helping others inspires hope in the community, laying the groundwork for a better province. With their guidance, the people of Abra can expect a promising future together.
