He also gave his personal belongings such as a box filled with his shoes and a big luggage filled with his clothing and pants, which he brought with him from Davao City. Aside from these, Sec. Go also led the distribution of food packs from the DSWD and hygiene packs from the DOH.
He even gave his own shoes to one of the affected residents who lost of all his belongings due to the fire. Sec. Go, instead, willingly wore the slippers of the recipient.
