🚨🚨PROJECT SAGIP: A FUNDRAISER FOR FARMERS 👨🏽🌾👩🏽🌾 AFFECTED BY TYPHOON GONI (TYPHOON ROLLY)🚨🚨
Hello everyone! Please spare a minute or two to read through this post!
A SIMPLE REBLOG CAN HELP SO MUCH!!!
Last November 1, Super Typhoon Rolly—the world’s most powerful tropical cyclone since Haiyan—hit my country, the Philippines. It devastated many areas in the country, most especially Catanduanes and Albay. Over 2 MILLION Filipinos have been affected/displaced amid a pandemic.
“A total of 372,653 families composed of 2,068,085 individuals were affected by Rolly in Ilocos (Region 1), Cagayan Valley (Region 2), Central Luzon (Region 3), Calabarzon (Region 4-A), Mimaropa (Region 4-B), Bicol, Western Visayas (Region 6), Central Visayas (Region 7), Eastern Visayas (Region 8), Zamboanga Peninsula (Region 9), National Capital Region (NCR), and Cordillera Administrative Region (CAR).”

P.S Kanina ko pa ito kinuha pero hanggang ngayon nag-aani pa rin sila
P.P.S Lugi na naman sa presyo ng bigas
In the aftermath of strong winds and rain brought about by typhoon Rolly (Goni), farmers are forced to salvage the crops they waited months on end for.
P.S I took this photo earlier but they are still harvesting until now.
P.P.S Farmers won’t get the proper profit for the rice they will sell.
I am knocking at your hearts and asking you to donate to PROJECT SAGIP, an initiative for the farmers affected by the super typhoon.
PROJECT SAGIP is an initiative led by For Our Farmers, a youth-led non-stock non-profit organization which “aims to help and uplift local farmers and fisherfolks.”
