I am not okay, I am not happy this holiday season.. My Filipino heart is weeping and depression goes on and off thinking the majority in the Philippines particularly in Cebu are greatly affected by the super typhoon. I had contacted my mother and sister, thank God they are safe!
I have no contact with my father yet but one of my relatives from my father's side said that my father's house was destroyed, he is asking for financial assistance because the roof he is living is damaged... With the little I have, I was able to offer a bit of my salary.
Christmas is not so happy in the place where I live in Cebu City and some parts of the Philippines that were greatly affected by heavy typhoon Odette (Rai) last December 16. Currently, the majority are struggling to find water, no electricity, no signal, a lot of the people have no contact with their family and relatives, 70% of the houses, buildings, hotels, stores, even airports are badly damaged..Hotels are fully booked and fewer generators are available.
Why do we choose to donate in the province?
Economic condition are unstable
Less resources accessible such as water and electricity
Current employment conditions are lower compared in the city as 75% of the areas in the province have been damaged
The majority of the people rely on food produced by farming.
People from the province needs to travel to the city center to seek help.
Only few organizations are available to help
Basic Needs:
Water
Food
Clothes
Medicine
Financial support for people who can't afford a shelter
Anything you can offer can bring a big happiness to them. How grateful the volunteers team if you can be part of this project

If you want to see the events organized together with the help of volunteers in the past, feel free to explore Care To Help the Needy in Facebook page.
Rest assured that we will keep you updated on the expenses you provide.
We would appreciate if you could care and share this gofundme.
We, volunteers, are hopeful that you can make someone's heart happy no matter how little you can offer.
The reward of this blog will be donated to the people of Cebu who have been devastated by the typhoon. The more people who can contribute, the more we can provide assistance.
