Ang Kasangga partylist banners the need to provide proper representation to Filipino micro entrepreneurs – individuals generating small income by offering various goods and services – and consequently taking a step forward towards decreasing the country’s poverty rate. Since its first National Convention held in April 2006, the party has embarked on numerous projects geared towards the advocacy and assistance towards microentrepreneurs.
