For his part, the Resource Officer in the offices of the Lawmaker, Aaron Weetor noted that the donation won't reach everyone but will prioritize the vulnerables, with plans to expand in future years.

"We thank the people of District #5 for giving their son the chance to serve. Hon. Gahr extends Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year to all of the inhabitants of the district," he expressed.

Also, the Chief of Office Staff of Hon. Gahr, Otis Sumo emphasized that the donation is the Lawmaker's way of giving back--not implying beneficiaries can't afford rice, but simply sharing the holiday spirit.

He maintained that the lawmaker, being a Christian and Christmas is a Christian Holiday meant for giving gifts, he decided to share with his constituents.

Mr. Sumo said as per the demand of the people of the district, the lawmaker has the mind of increasing the donation in the coming years.
