THE PHILIPPINES NEED YOUR HELP!
In the beginning of the month (November) the ph was hit by the strongest tropical cyclone ever recorded in history. Then followed by 3 more typhoons. 4 typhoons and it is only the 15th November. The heavy rainfall resulted in the government's decision to release water from the Magat Dam, which supplies electricity in Metro Manila. Excess water from the dam had to be released last Friday, 13th November 2020. This was equivalent to two Olympic-sized pools per second. The TV station responsible for local news in the surrounding area was shut down (due to tyranny), therefore locals were not fully informed about the situation. Which sadly, resulted in more lives being lost.
My friend is working closely with Philippine volunteers and set up a gofundme. All proceeds will be sent to them. As a filipino living abroad, I always find it hard to discern which donation link to trust when it comes to the ph, so I am grateful my friend set this up. She has outlined more information about the situation on her gofundme page.
Thank you for taking your time reading this far. With the current climate I know how hard it is for everyone financially any donation will be appreciated. A reblog will also go a long way!
