as some of you probably know, i am from the province of zamboanga in mindanao. yesterday, typhoon ondoy hit the philippines, and zamboanga was one of those areas terribly affected by the storm. the typhoon caused flashfloods and big waves to hit zamboanga, especially the provinces near the shorelines. i have 2 cousins working as nurses for the public hospital, and i have learned that more than 150 families were homeless after yesterday. these families are homeless, and they need as much help as they can get. since zamboanga isn’t the only area affected, metro manila and northern luzon was actually greatly affected as well; the help our government gives can only be so much, with so many people needing and asking for assistance. these families, with their children are not only without a home but without food and other basic necessities as well. that is why i have come up with the idea that maybe, i can get some help from my fellow bloggers and raise some money to help out our fellowmen.
I gathered some of our used clothing at home and will drop it off at SM by tomorrow.
In these times..Any form of help counts.
God bless you for doing this.
