Another batch of Entrepreyouths were granted livelihood assistance this year through the Paranas Entrepreyouth Program.

After the submission of business proposals, panel interviews, and deliberations, 16 outstanding young Paranasnons were awarded their grants during the 37th Adlaw Han Paranas Celebration held on November 6, 2025, in Poblacion 6, Paranas, Samar.

The grants were personally handed over by Municipal Mayor Elvira Babalcon, together with Municipal Vice Mayor Atty. Eunice Babalcon and the Sangguniang Bayan Members.

This milestone marks another step toward nurturing innovative and young business-minded in Paranas. Through the Entrepreyouth program, the 16 young entrepreneurs are given the opportunity to showcase their entrepreneurial ideas, present their business plans, and gain valuable feedback from the panelists.

The Local Government Unit of Paranas, led by our Municipal Mayor Hon. Elvira Babalcon, continues to support the youth sector in turning their visions into ventures, empowering them to become future drivers of local economic growth and sustainable development.

The Batch 5 entrepreyouth participants are now taking their first steps in building and managing their own businesses, contributing to a stronger and more progressive Paranas.
