The funding for these programmes is sourced from the "Fund for the poor”, Fund “For the national sea and islands – For the fatherland frontline", and the relief fund of the city, she said, adding that beneficiaries will be those families with difficult circumstance, near-poor and disadvantaged households, people with disabilities, orphans, labourers, and families affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
