Assuring the welfare of corps members in his state as a priority, the coordinator stated, “I assured them (corps members) that I will ensure they receive high-quality and sufficient meals.

I assured them that they won’t need to spend their money at the camp market. This is the commitment I made to them, and I am delivering on it.”

“I am determined to provide them with meals in a manner that won’t require them to spend their own funds. Since they may not have the financial means, it is our responsibility to ensure they are well-fed,” he added.
