Nagua – The government of President Luis Abinader, through the General Directorate of Community Development (DGDC), organized an extensive day of comprehensive assistance in the community of San José de Villa, in this municipality, in which hundreds of families benefited from a medical operation, fumigation, delivery of food, fruit plants, and other donations.

The operation, which began shortly after 9:00 a.m., included medical consultations and the delivery of medicines to more than 200 people, including children, young people, adults, and pregnant women.

The people were attended by the medical staff of the DGDC, together with collaborators of the National Health Service (SNS), under the coordination of Dr. Ithamar Batista.

More than 150 fruit plants, such as avocado, mango, sapote, and guanabana, donated by the Regional Agriculture Department of the Duarte province through engineer Frank Ventura, were also delivered.

Meanwhile, the fumigation brigades intervened in more than 400 houses, including patios and alleys.

The operation was supervised by the general director of the DGDC, Eléxido Paula Liranzo, who was accompanied by the head of the Social Assistance Department of the entity, Cristian Carrasco.

Paula Liranzo thanked the contribution of several state institutions “to the success of the day, in compliance with collaboration agreements signed with these entities.”

“Today we are in the community of San José de Villa, in the province of María Trinidad Sánchez, which by disposition of our president Luis Abinader, we are bringing them an extensive operation of integral assistance, because his concern is that every Dominican has access to health, eats well and lives in an environment free of pests and insects,” she said.
