On September 30, 2025, at 10 PM, a powerful earthquake struck the northern part of Cebu, devastating communities and leaving many families without homes, food, and basic necessities.

My own family is from San Remigio—thankfully, they are safe. But many of our neighbors and fellow residents are suffering greatly. Houses have collapsed or been severely damaged, families have lost their belongings, and many do not know how they will rebuild their lives.

We are starting this campaign to raise immediate funds for emergency relief—including food, clean water, medicine, clothing, and temporary shelter. Beyond that, we hope to provide support for the long and difficult process of rebuilding homes and restoring livelihoods.

Every contribution, no matter how small, will directly help families in need. The funds will go toward:

The people of San Remigio and the surrounding areas are strong and resilient, but they cannot recover alone. With your help, we can bring hope, relief, and a path to recovery for those who have lost so much.

Please consider donating and sharing this campaign. Your kindness will go a long way in helping families stand back up after this tragedy.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you.
