Thanks to your immediate response since we activated Operation Walang Iwanan for Typhoon Yolanda, we have personally handed out ~100,000 FOOD PACKS (~6 meals for a family of 5) in ~75 towns across 8 provinces. This would not be possible without the generosity of partners and the thousands of volunteers – young and old, rich and poor, popular and seemingly ordinary – who’ve stepped up to become heroes for our brothers and sisters in need. Whether by land, by air or by sea, volunteers from all over the Philippines made their way to where they were needed the most, even if it meant traveling for long hours and spending the Christmas season away from home. More than their giving out of much needed relief packs containing food and water, the volunteers’ presence and care helped bring a more tangible hope to the survivors.
