Lots of progress has been made, but this is just the beginning. Thank you to all that have helped so far:)

- Partnered with 7 other companies to coordinate and share resources
- Purchased 1,500 bottles of water, 100 water purification bottles, 10,000 water purification tablets, and 20 mass purification systems
- Purchased 1,000 filters and emergency food and kits
- Distributed a 24-48 hour supply of bottled water to each teammate in the Cebu City area
- Arranged to mail water purification tablets to 8 affected members on other islands
- Are in the process today of setting up the purification systems in team members houses to use to refill water for any team member in the area

Needs still include food, water, shelter, building supplies and ultimately rebuilding. We, at Buy Box Experts, the company that employees these people, are seeking funds to help these individuals pay for these needs. All money donated will be spent on emergency supplies including water, food, temporary housing or to pay costs of repairing / rebuilding homes. Some of the funds will be disbursed directly to procure emergency supplies for these individuals and their families, the remaining funds will be disbursed directly to these individuals for repairing / rebuilding their homes.
