Vice President Sara Duterte highlighted the major accomplishments of the Office of the Vice President (OVP) for 2025 in a year-end report released on Monday, December 1.
In a social media post, she presented the OVP’s initiatives in medical assistance, disaster relief, environmental efforts, education, livelihood support, and operational reforms.
VP Duterte emphasized the continuity of the OVP’s core aid programs.
“MEDICAL AND BURIAL ASSISTANCE. Nananatiling bukas ang ating assistance windows nitong taong 2025. Nakapagbigay tayo ng tulong sa 4,643 na Pilipinong may karamdaman. At nakatulong ang ating Burial Assistance sa 1,377 beneficiaries. Ito ang pruweba na kung may puso at paninindigan para maglingkod, laging may paraan para tulungan ang ating mga kababayan,” she said.
She also outlined the OVP’s disaster operations and crisis support.
“DISASTER RELIEF AND RELIEF FOR INDIVIDUALS IN CRISES AND EMERGENCIES PROGRAM. Ang OVP ay laging handa sa panahon ng krisis. Ang ating Disaster Operations Center ay patuloy na naghahatid ng agarang tulong. Sa kabuuan, umabot sa 73,054 na pamilyang Pilipino na naapektuhan ng kalamidad ang ating natulungan, kabilang dito ang 9,129 na pamilyang nakatanggap ng donated items. As part of our rapid response to the 6.9 magnitude earthquake in Cebu and the Mt. Kanlaon eruption, OVP distributed 2,514 bags of 25-kilo rice,” she noted.
VP Sara also celebrated the success of their environmental campaign.
“Ngayong taon, nalampasan na natin ang ating target. Nakapagtanim tayo ng higit isang milyong puno sa buong bansa—three years ahead of schedule. Bilang simbolo ng dedikasyon, inakyat ng ating team sa Southern Mindanao ang Mount Apo… para magtanim ng Tinikaran trees at markahan ang ating millionth milestone.”
In education, she highlighted the reach of the OVP’s learning support efforts.
“Ang ating Million Learners Campaign naman ay nakapagpamahagi na rin ng 460,272 bags. Direkta itong nakarating sa mga remote areas, tulad ng Obu Manuvu Indigenous Peoples learners sa Kidapawan City.”
She also cited achievements in livelihood programs, free transport services, and internal reforms. The OVP received a Special Citation from the Development Academy of the Philippines for its successful “paper-less” challenge.
VP Duterte closed her report with a message of resilience and unity.
“Patuloy po tayo maging matatag sa mga hamon ng krisis at patuloy na maging mapagmahal sa ating bayan… Mahalin natin ang Pilipinas—para sa Diyos, sa Bayan, at sa bawat Pamilyang Pilipino.”
Her year-end report comes after she recently affirmed her readiness to assume the presidency amid calls for President Bongbong Marcos’ resignation.
