Kyla Denise T. Pamat, a nutritionist dietician at DSWD-Davao, shared in a radio interview on Davao City Disaster Radio (DCDR) on January 26, 2024, that the enhancement is a result of a budget insertion in 2023.

Additionally, selected LGUs with a prevalent number of underweight children receive milk feeding for the entire duration.
