Misery and desperation are deeply
etched on the faces of the millions of victims of super typhoon Yolanda, not
knowing where to get their next meal or how to rebuild their broken homes and
lives and how to cope with the loss of their loved ones. Chaos is widespread as
the citizenry have nowhere to go for basic services: there is no electricity,
no water services, no communications and worse no local government service to
speak of. The typhoon victims have to literally fend for themselves.
Goods.ph in partnership with the
Philippine National Red Cross, is undertaking a charitable cause that
offers RELIEF GOODS PACKAGE for the typhoon victims that one can avail
for donation purposes. We are encouraging our customers to avail our special RELIEF
GOODS PACKAGE from our site to enable them to donate to the typhoon
victims online. You can also donate even a single bottled water, this is in
align with our motto that everyone can help even in their own little ways. For
fair distribution, we will be forwarding these items to the office of Red
Cross.
Aside from the RELIEF
GOODS PACKAGE that you will buy to donate to typhoon victim, Goods.ph will
also give an amount of 30 pesos for every donation package bought by our
customers to proceed to Red Cross Philippines. In hindsight, this is only the
tip of the iceberg! It will take months if not years to rebuild a province literally
wiped out from the face of the earth. After this transition, the harder part of
constructing homes and infrastructure will be the next phase. This will surely
take years to accomplish not to mention a staggering budget!
The litmus test for the survivors
and Filipinos in general is how well they will cope with the situation since it
will take years to recover from typhoon Yolanda.
