Nurturing the Future: Feeding Program for Malnourished Daycare Children Held During 75th Adlaw Hong Butuan Celebration Guingona Park, Butuan City | August 7, 2025 In a heartfelt effort to nourish young bodies and uplift young lives, the City Agriculture and Veterinary Department, in collaboration with the City Health Department, successfully conducted a Feeding Program for Malnourished Daycare Children on August 7, 2025 at Guingona Park, Butuan City. This activity was among the highlights of the 75th Adlaw Hong Butuan celebration under the theme “Agrikultura Ka’amo, Isda’anan". With the generous support of the City Government of Butuan, led by City Mayor Atty. Lawrence Lemuel H. Fortun, this initiative aimed to combat child malnutrition while promoting the richness of local culinary heritage. The meals served were lovingly prepared and cooked by the renowned Natad ni Olympia culinary team, who showcased nutritious and culturally significant dishes including: 1. Ginataang Gulay 2. Ginataang Banisil 3. Dabao-Dabao 4. Palagsing 5. Pao with Latik, and a 6. Refreshing Coconut Juice with Milk Each dish was not just a meal but a celebration of Butuan’s identity — nourishing the body while keeping the culture alive in every bite. As we commemorate the 75th Adlaw Hong Butuan, this Feeding Program stands as a reminder that true progress begins with caring for the most vulnerable — especially the children who will one day carry the name of Butuan into the future. #AdlawHongButuan75 #FeedingHopeButuan #AgrikulturaKaAmoIsdaanan #CityGovernmentOfButuan #ButuanCAVD #NatadNiOlympia
