Negros Electric and Power Corp. (Negros Power) marked its second anniversary by extending livelihood support to local farmers through the Roots of Hope: Farmers’ Livelihood Support Program. The mini event was held last August 25, 2026, at Purok 18, Barangay Alangilan, Bacolod City.
The Roots of Hope Initiative for Local Farmers
The initiative supported the Alangilan Granada Agrarian Reform Beneficiaries Farmers Association, Inc. through the donation of various vegetable seeds and seedlings, along with crates and a canopy to help strengthen their farming activities.
The assistance included different varieties of corn, balatong, okra, ampalaya, pipino, kalabasa, talong, tomato, bell pepper, and hot pepper.
The activity was attended by Negros Power Vice President and Chief Operating Officer Engr. Joe-Mel Zaporteza, Barangay Alangilan Captain Roy Retiza, Barangay Granada Captain Armando Vito, Negros Power employees, and members of the farmers’ association led by its president, Renato Parohinog.
The program aims to strengthen local farmers’ livelihoods, promote sustainable agriculture, and provide resources that can help improve productivity and support long-term community development.
Through Roots of Hope, Negros Power continues to invest in initiatives that empower communities, promote sustainable livelihoods, and help build a more resilient future. The initiative forms part of Negros Power’s second anniversary celebration with the theme “Growing with the communities we serve.”
