Hi,

My name is Therese Marie Galicia and I'm reaching out with a heavy heart.

Last night at 7PM, in my hometown of Mandaluyong City in the Philippines, my family and the community that I grew up in lost their home in a devastating fire. While we are so grateful that they made it out safe and uninjured, their houses - a place that held so many memories, sacrifices and livelihood are completely gone.

They are now left without anything especially it’s approaching Christmas. Rebuilding their houses will take time and at this moment they are in need of the basic necessities.

Since I am based in UK. I've set up this GoFundMe on their behalf. All donations will be withdrawn here in the UK and will be transferred directly to my family in the Philippines to cover urgent needs such as:

Food & Water

Clothing

Toiletries

School supplies

Every little bit helps, and even the smallest donation will make a huge impact. If you cannont donate, sharing this post would mean so much.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, for your kindness and support during this difficult time.

With love,

Therese and the Galicia Family
