It's about giving

Known to everyone the Philippines is prone to natural disasters but its people are always strong and resilient. When they fall they stand up and move on. Typhoon “Ondoy” hit the island of Luzon on weekend and caused floods all over Metro Manila. It was the worst flood in 40 years. Many families are displaced and required medical attention. They’ve lost their houses, their clothing and other personal properties were damaged. Though rain has abated and water has subsided (in some areas), however lack of resources and slow response from our government, some families are still waiting to be rescued and in need of bottled-water, food, and clothing especially in the most-hard hit areas such as Malabon, Navotas, Cainta, Pasig and Marikina City. But why wait for our incompetent local government to act upon, if you have something to offer, please do so and donate to the Philippine Red Cross. Big or small donation can make a huge difference to every family flood victim.
