With the theme "๐น๐๐๐๐ ๐ฏ๐๐๐๐๐, ๐ป๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐บ๐๐๐๐๐๐", the celebration brought together generations of public servants, partners, and stakeholders, highlighting CSWDO's enduring legacy of compassion, dedication, and meaningful service to the Dabawenyos.
The City Social Welfare and Development Office (CSWDO) celebrated its 34th Anniversary on November 6, 2026, at the Apo View Hotel, gathering more than 800 employees, retirees, partners, and distinguished guests to commemorate the department's journey, milestones, and accomplishments.
As part of the morning's activities, employees participated in a learning session on "Service and Accountability in Good Governance," facilitated by Rev. Arnel C. Tan. The session highlighted the importance of accountability, integrity, and responsible public service in carrying out the department's mandate and delivering quality social welfare services to the Dabawenyos.
Joining the celebration as special guests were City Vice Mayor Rodrigo "Rigo" Duterte II; City Councilors Hon. Al Ryan S. Alejandre, Enzo Villafuerte, and Danilo "Danny" C. Dayanghirang; and Atty. Janis Louis H. Esparcia, Officer-in-Charge of the City Engineer's Office.
Also joining the celebration were representatives from the City Information Office (CIO), CEMPC, DXFE represented by Magnolia F. Yrasuegui, OBRA Dabawenyo represented by Nilben C. Albarillo, and CRU Philippines, together with other CSWDO partners and stakeholders. The Office of the Vice President (OVP) also shared in the celebration by providing anniversary giveaways for CSWDO employees, adding to the joy and excitement of the occasion.
The celebration was also attended by CSWDO retirees, whose years of service and contributions helped shape the department through the years. Their presence brought together different generations of public servants, united by a shared history and commitment to public service.
The anniversary celebration also recognized outstanding employees and partners through special awards, honoring their dedication, valuable contributions, and continued support in advancing the department's social welfare programs and services.
More than just a celebration, this milestone served as a reminder that behind every program, service, and achievement are people working together with one shared purpose: to care for and uplift the lives of every Dabawenyo.
As CSWDO looks back on 34 years of service, it remains steadfast in its commitment to responsive, inclusive, and compassionate social welfare services for the community, carrying its timeless spirit of service into the years ahead.
Happy 34th Anniversary, CSWDO! Here's to more years of meaningful service and making a difference in the lives of the Dabawenyos!
