#Odette Palawan Relief

On December 16 and 17., 2021, the beautiful islands of the Philippines was ravaged by the strongest typhoon this year. It left many people without homes, food, and water. Connection has been cut off from areas affected; roads and bridges damaged and not accessible. Families haven’t heard from their loved ones. Silence is our biggest enemy at this time, as we do not know the fate of the those in certain areas but continue to receive feedback of the extensive damage that has occurred from the typhoon bit by bit online.

 

Although communities are gathering together to form relief efforts for various parts of the islands effected, time is of the essence as it's been days we have not heard from our friends in the areas most devastated by the typhoon. All we know from sources who have managed to contact us is they have run out of clean drinking water, food, and some do not have shelter at this moment.

 

I know this is a particular hard time, especially with Covid still looming, but if you could spare even the smallest amount: the price of a coffee at home feeds a family in the Philippines. It would mean a lot to those affected if you could help during this time.

 

 

Full transparency: We have set up the gofundme page as a means for our international friends to donate as we can only use GCash + bank accounts in the Philippines to process funds at this time.

The donations will go to local organisations in Palawan, which will use the funds to purchase water, food, and utilities needed to distribute to the local communities.

If you would like to know where the funds will go, please include your email with your donation and we will send you an email with the breakdown.
