May 25, 2024, General Santos City, Philippines — In a vibrant celebration of the Sarangani Bay Festival, the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) Rehiyon Dose, initiated a coastal clean-up drive, showcasing their commitment to environmental stewardship and community engagement.
Clad in their most colorful attire, the team was led by OIC Regional Director Atty. Rochelle D. Mahinay-Sero, CESE.

Tuble, ADAC Technical Assistant Zyra Francisco, Engr. Jennelyn Penales, Development Management Officer III Ana Louwel V. Cabrido, and residents of Barangay Reyes, all of whom worked tirelessly to ensure the success of the clean-up drive.
The initiative took place along the pristine shores of Sarangani Bay, with gloves on and trash bags in hand, the volunteers scoured the beach, picking up debris and litter that marred the bay's natural beauty. The activity drew support from residents, volunteers, and environmental advocates, who worked alongside the DILG team to remove waste and promote eco-friendly practices.

The coastal clean-up was not only an environmental endeavor but also a colorful celebration, with participants donning vibrant outfits that added a festive atmosphere to the event. The sight of government officials and community members working together in their lively attire underscored the spirit of unity and cooperation that the Sarangani Bay Festival aims to inspire.
