Typhoon Haiyan hit the Philippines in early November. An estimated 10,000 are feared dead and an additional 65,000 missing. Over 9.8 million have been affected and need emergency assistance.
Children affected by Super Typhoon Haiyan/Yolanda urgently need access to safe water, hygiene supplies, food, shelter and a safe environment to recover. You can help them now by making a donation of any amount.
How your donation helps:
$36 provides 7 families with water jugs and water purification solution for a month’s supply of safe, drinking water.
$79 provides 15 people with essential hygiene supplies such as soap, towels, water pails, toothbrushes & toothpaste.
$119 provides a child-friendly space for 35 children in an evacuation center with recreational materials to help them recover.
Funds will be donated directly to UNICEF relief efforts in the Philippines. UNICEF is an agency of the United Nations devoted to serving the world’s children. UNICEF began providing assistance to the Philippines in November 1948.
A note from First Generation American co-founder Jessica Rosas:
“I have to say thanks to everyone for their concern for my friends and family in the Philippines. Thank goodness they were all safe & far from the typhoon. However, the rest of the country needs our help. Even though there has been an outpouring of support, there is still so much that needs to be done. Our plan is to unify efforts to collect donations for helping emergency shelters and gathering lifesaving supplies.”
