For many places 4 days to go they will be celebrating Christmas. On the other hand, there is a small place here in the Philippines that doesn't feel the spirit of Christmas because of the tragic event happen to them. Just recently, Bagyong Sendong hits Cagayan De Oro City and Iligan City at midnight time when everyone fall asleep. They are all shocked and surprised by the flood who just rushes to their houses, all they could was just run. Some of them, didn't survive for this tragic event and some are still missing.
For the season of Christmas, let's all work in hand in helping our fellow brothers and sisters who were affected by this calamity.
SENDONG RELIEF OPS UPDATE (from all sectors):
FOOD DONATIONS: Please be informed that there a number of our Muslim brothers and sisters that were affected by Sendong as well. Hence, AVOID sending PORK canned goods as much as possible as they will not eat it.
CLOTHING DONATIONS: While a number of OLD clothes were donated, they also need NEW underwear as well especially women and children. Sleepin...g mats and blankets are very much welcome!
TRAUMA COUNSELING: This is an urgent NEED as well for those who survived and lost their loved ones. We have very few psychologists and counselors in CDO and Iligan.
DONATING MADE EASY: Still many are UNAWARE that even LBC accepts donations to be delivered for FREE. Kindly encourage everyone to give during this Season of Hope.
