The rain seems to have stopped today, and I'm going to the nearest donation center to help in my own little way. I'm bringing some of my little man's old clothes, along with a few canned goods. It's the least I can do for the victims of Typhoon Maring.
If you would like to donate too, here's a list of places I know where you can drop off your relief donations:
- Red Cross
- SM Malls
- LBC branches
- McDonald's
- Ateneo de Manila
- Colegio de San Agustin Makati
- DLSU - Dasmarinas
- UP Diliman
And here's a list of emergency hotline numbers for everyone's reference.
Here's hoping that Typhoon Maring leaves the country soon. Stay safe and dry, everyone!
sad,but this is now what they call the new normal sigh hope you are safe btw.
ReplyDeleteNature is totally unforgiving when it hits and hits hard. I definitely remember when Hurricane Sandy hit us here. It is devastating. I am glad to hear that your village is safe. My thoughts and prayers are going out to all who were affected by this typhoon.
ReplyDeleteThose pictures are heartbreaking. So sorry that this has been happening and I hope it ends soon so people can begin putting their lives back together.
ReplyDeleteHow scary! My Step Grandma is from the Philippines. I hope none of her family is in danger!
ReplyDeleteI will keep you all in my thoughts and prayers. Hope you are all safe and sound.

Goog to know you and your family is safe. It is indeed seeing others soaked with rain and houses submerged in the flood. Hopefully the government will take a step in preventing or atleast minimize this flooding problem.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad that you're hometown is safe from the disaster. Same here too. I hope we will not experience it anymore para maka recover ang mga kababayan natin.
ReplyDeleteAnother calamity but we always rise above the hardships and let the heroism and the bayanihan spirit shine through.
