Please Send Help and Prayers to the Philippines
My community needs you, world.
I am currently in the process of taking the beginning steps to help with relief fundraising from NYC, but if you are able, please contribute so we can get aid to the Philippines quickly. Typhoon Ondoy, also known as Storm Ketsana, thundered an onslaught of rain to Manila over the weekend, leaving many citizens displaced, missing, and dead. It is the worst storm the Philippines has suffered in years. Thankful that my family is safe, but praying for those who have been affected. Please take time to extend a helping hand.
Via my friend Em, here are some helpful links for donations:
Philippine Red Cross

Bayan

Please be weary of donating to the American Red Cross, as I’ve heard from my friend Geo that some shady shenanigans have been suspected from said organization- please read the literature.
