Ondoy?
Truly destructive. His wrath has proven to be immensely devastating to a lot of people.
I was really lucky to have been safe and warm inside our house during the calamity yesterday. Still, my sympathy goes out to the unfortunate individuals and families who have been stranded in the most unlikely of places because of the horror that Ondoy has brought upon us.
Just a few minutes ago, I've made a donation to the Philippine Red Cross via G-Cash, and sent the remaining money I have left in my account - proceeds from this shop, "Curls & Twirls", and not my own. A hefty amount, I must admit, and I haven't even told Cring and Ate Mooch about it yet. I'm sure they'd understand though. We shall be helping a lot of people with the few hundred pesos I've sent in our name, after all. =)
To those who are reading this, I advice that you do the same. Let's all help out by giving donations, shall we? Right now, a mere P10 can do wonders to someone's life.
Donate to the Philippine Red Cross by calling 143 or 527-0000.
You may also make your donations via SMS or G-Cash. Convenient, yes? :3
For SMS, send them in by texting RED<space>AMOUNT to 2899 (Globe) or 4483 (Smart).
For G-Cash, text DONATE<space>AMOUNT<space>4-digit M-PIN<space>REDCROSS, and send to 2882.
Feel free to re-post this journal. Let your friends know that people need them.
Don't forget to pray!

XOXO,
i also donated. :) my bf went to Manila last Saturday for their tour, yung sa course nila, supposedly tutuloy pa sila sa may Cavite pero pinauwi na lang, tapos ayun, na-stranded sila. awang-awa ako sa kanila kase pagod na pagod sila nun. :( ako naman may tour sa Bataan for a photoshoot, luckily nakaabot kami dun sa pupuntahan, pero wala din kami nagawa. i felt reeally bad when i saw pictures and everything. it was unbelievable. it was like a movie. :(
ReplyDeleteAko nga kung hindi pa natext nina Cring nung morning nun, I wouldn't have found out na ganun na pala kalala yung sitwasyon. :( Kasi honestly, wala talaga ako naramdaman sa house namen. Kahit sa street namen walang baha. I had no idea na sa labas pala ng village namen, naghahasik na rin pala ng lagim si Ondoy.
ReplyDeleteKanina lang I talked to Cring and dun ko lang naipaalam sa kanila yung donation. I already knew it was okay for them pero nagulat ako nung sinabi nila na "KULANG PA!". Haha... xD Grabe, P400+ na rin yung sinend ko sa Red Cross. ^^; Kaya ayun, magddonate naman sila ng clothes, and I'll do the same, of course.
Sa totoo lang, nakukulangan din ako sa ginagawa ko kasi dito lang ako sa house, unlike the others na lumalabas pa talaga para makitulong sa groups na nagddistribute ng donations. Kaya lang eto lang magagawa ko, magdonate and tumulong from a distance. I just hope okay na yun. ^^
Sa totoo lang, ako yung tipo ng tao na walang pakelam sa nangyayari. As in. Pero simula nung nalaman ko yung pakiramdam ng mawalan, at ayun nga, na totoo yung mga nangyayaring masama na ganyan na hindi talaga maiwasan, and thinking na parang malapit na nga ang katapusan ng mundo, ayun, nagkaroon na ako ng contribution sa mundong ito. :)
ReplyDeleteAyun, we can still help, and we still help. Okay na din yun. :)
Haha... Napapaisip nga ko e... 2012 ba talaga katapusan ng mundo? xD
ReplyDeleteKahit ako. Pilit pumapasok sa isip ko na I should rush life, live life to the fullest, though ayaw ko paniwalaan, ayaw ko na isipin talaga...
ReplyDeleteWe don't know if we can still catch up in donating for the victims of the Ondoy storm, but hey! Donations are always welcome around, so probably no matter kailan pa, we're not left behind and it's not yet late. :)
ReplyDeleteWe are running a project in order to raise up donations (monetary and in-kind).
A year ago, nagawa ko maglagay kahit 5 cents sa isang plastic container. Kahit mga centavos nandun, I will still donate it kasi it'll mean a lot to the people in need. :)
And we should also bear in mind na kahit walang calamity, we can still donate, di ba.
