Thousands of individuals in Camarines Sur who were affected by severe tropical storm Enteng (international name: Yagi) received food packs through GMA Kapuso Foundation.

According to "24 Oras" on Wednesday, GMA Kapuso Foundation provided lift to about 4,000 residents in the municipalities of Milaor and Minalabac by distributing food packs.
