Sen. Pia Cayetano co-sponsors Resolution declaring National Family Week

“Celebrate, but choose health,” Senator Pia S. Cayetano emphasized as she co-sponsored Proposed Resolution No. 125, introduced by Senate President Vicente Sotto III. The measure expresses the sense of the Senate to declare the last week of September of every year as National Family Week.

Known for her consistent advocacy on health and nutrition, Senator Cayetano stressed the importance of honoring the Filipino tradition of celebrating family milestones, while also encouraging families to adopt healthier choices during these gatherings. She cautioned against the excessive consumption of soft drinks, fatty, and sugary foods that are heavily marketed to the public. For her, National Family Week should not only bring families closer together, but also inspire them to prioritize nutrition and overall well-being for a stronger, healthier future.
