Jennalyn, a former OFW, diligently sets up her street food stall.
The Office of the Vice President – Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao Satellite Office (OVP-BARMM SO), through its Magnegosyo Ta ‘Day (MTD) program, has extended livelihood assistance to beneficiaries, including Jennalyn, a former overseas Filipino worker (OFW) from Cotabato City.
Jennalyn received a financial grant of PHP 15,000 to support the establishment of her small business.
Having worked as a domestic helper in Saudi Arabia for four years before returning to the Philippines in 2021, she and her husband, a tricycle driver earning just enough for their daily needs, sought additional means to sustain their household, especially with two children still in school.
“Nakita ko lang siya sa Cotabato City ‘yung street food tapos sabi ko sa asawa ko i-try ko siya kasi ganitong negosyo na street food wala sa amin dito sa Mintex. Nung na-try ko siya after one month parang nag boom ‘yung negosyo namin ng asawa ko,” (I saw a street food business in Cotabato City and told my husband that I wanted to try it because there was nothing like it in our area in Mintex. After giving it a try, our business started to boom within a month), she said.
Operating daily from 2:00 PM to 8:00 PM, Jennalyn sells street food, providing additional income for her family.
She expressed her deep gratitude for the MTD program, emphasizing its crucial role in empowering Filipinos to start their own businesses.
“Malaking tulong talaga itong programa sa akin, dati maliit lang ‘yung naibebenta ko sa ngayon nagkaroon ako ng dagdag na paninda. Hindi lang siya street food kung hindi may dagdag pa na uling tsaka kahoy,” (This program has been a great help to me. Before, I could only sell a small amount, but now I have more products to offer. It’s not just street food anymore—I also offer charcoal and firewood), she said.
For many individuals like Jennalyn, the livelihood grant serves as a stepping stone toward financial stability and a brighter future for their families.
The MTD program is a flagship initiative of Vice President Sara Duterte that aims to support Filipinos who aspire to venture into entrepreneurship and achieve economic self-sufficiency.

Naghandog ng tulong pangkabuhayan ang Office of the Vice President – Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao Satellite Office (OVP-BARMM SO) sa pamamagitan ng Magnegosyo Ta ‘Day (MTD) program sa mga benepisyaryo.
Kabilang si Jennalyn, isang dating overseas Filipino worker (OFW) mula sa Cotabato City, ay nahandugan ng PHP 15,000 bilang panimulang kapital upang maitayo ang kanyang maliit na negosyo.
Naging domestic helper siya sa Saudi Arabia sa loob ng apat na taon bago bumalik sa Pilipinas noong 2021. Upang matustusan ang pangangailangan ng kanilang pamilya, lalo na ang pag-aaral ng kanilang dalawang anak, naisip nilang mag-asawa na magsimula ng negosyo. Ang kanyang asawa ay isang tricycle driver na may kita lamang na sapat sa pang-araw-araw na gastusin.

Araw-araw, mula 2:00 PM hanggang 8:00 PM, nagtitinda si Jennalyn ng street food upang magkaroon ng karagdagang kita para sa kanilang pamilya.
Inihayag niya ang kanyang pasasalamat sa MTD program at binigyang-diin ang malaking tulong nito sa mga Pilipinong nais magsimula ng sariling negosyo.
