My name is Mary Ann Nillas-Chandler. I am the founder of Fitness for a Cause, which started in 2011 (https://www.facebook.com/Fitnessforacause). Together with the help of my friend Arren Mendezona and a handful of our family and friends, we have been helping communities affected by natural disasters, also feeding and helping underprivileged kids.

On November 4, 2025, at 5:10 am, Typhoon Tino made landfall in Cebu City, Philippines.

This has turned our world upside down, affecting not only my family but many others in our community. We’ve created a fundraiser to help our community back home affected by this typhoon. Any support big or small, a donation, or even a simple share would help a lot.

Typhoon Tino caused widespread devastation in Cebu, with catastrophic flooding, massive displacement, and extensive damage to homes and infrastructure. The heavy rainfall from the storm caused rivers to overflow, submerging entire communities and leading to a humanitarian emergency characterized by destroyed neighborhoods, impassable roads, and a high number of fatalities. Relief efforts were hampered by the scale of destruction and the ongoing needs of displaced familiy.

Immediate needs:

*Relief goods

(rice, canned goods, noodles)

• Bottled water

• Clothes & blankets

• Hygiene kits

(towels, soap, shampoo, toothpaste, pads, wet wipes, alcohol)

• Sleeping essentials

(mats, pillows)

ALL PROCEEDS WILL BE DONATED TO FAMILIES AT SITIO LOWER PAILOB. BRGY. SAMBAG I. CEBU CITY, PHILIPPINES AFFECTED BY TYPHOON TINO.

THank you so much for sharing your blessings.
