FundRaising for people heavily affected by Super Typhoon Odette in Cebu and Leyte Province

(Edited)

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

I am heartbroken for the disaster and crisis that has followed in the wake of Odette. If I hadn't just been stranded abroad 3 years and lost everything, I would be in a better position to help. At the very least we have Hive, and I think eyes are currently on content relating to Odette. There have been some pretty good post payouts for those that need some financial assistance there, so I hope this post continues to earn more and you can easily withdraw the HIVE/HBD and use it for whatever overpriced or scarce items you need at this time. Stay strong my friend.

I am away from my country but I can't celebrate so much when majorities are having a difficult time... I couldn't agree more, those were the people who really had a tough encounter sharing their struggles and stories, and they deserve to be rewarded! I would continue helping the people in the provinces as they have fewer resources: food, water, electricity, some people travel to the city to seek help and less organization available there... it is sad but we have to rise. This too shall pass. Thank you for sharing your concern @justinparke and whatever contribution the HIVE community offered, we are still grateful. :))

You are in the Netherlands, correct? Wow, my Cambodian family and were living in (stranded) Suriname for the last three years, but I finally managed to get a visa back to Cambodia so we can reunite. Do you speak some Dutch? I never learned much, but I learned more of the Suriname creole, they call it Taki Taki.

yes I just migrated here 2 years ago. I am currently learning the Dutch language for my daughter so I'm still slowly building up. :) Congratulations @justinparke for a visa approved. Nothing feels like home when you are with your loved ones. Btw, suriname food is delicious, I've tried a few of the dishes!!! Have a wonderful holiday!

How funny, there is a restaurant called Roopram Roti that is in the Netherlands and Suriname. We used to eat at it very often, a kind of roti fast-food shop.
