Wish us a safe trip! :)

Truckloads of Love

Had two days of ball-busting volunteer work for the repacking of goods and donations for the victims of Typhoon Sendong. It was hard work but a great way to spend the holidays by helping those in need.

It was amazing how truckloads of donations arrived almost every hour to drop off the goods at the Kalayaan Hall in Cebu Normal University. We found ourselves knee-deep in noodles and canned goods! Some soldiers from the Armed Forces of The Philippines were also there to help. Glad I was there to be a part of it, too.

I'm off to dry my sweaty balls and get some much needed rest.
We're one sleep away until Christmas!

Operation Sendong

By now all of you have heard and seen on the news the devastation that Typhoon Sendong has brought upon our countrymen in Northern Mindanao. The death toll is rising, there are still missing people, and families have lost their homes and all their belongings.

It's unfortunate that this had to happen now especially that it's Christmas. Let this be a chance for us to help in any way we can.We need to lift their spirits up and let them know that they are not alone in this and that help is on it's way.

Yesterday my family and I decided to donate used clothing in one of the major drop-off points for donations to the typhoon victims. (If you're in Cebu and would like to help, click HERE for the nearest local drop-off points)

My grandmother wanted to tag along

Your donations are much appreciated. Be it in clothing, toiletries, canned goods, or in cash. They need all the help they can get.

Went to volunteer for the repacking of donated goods today. Will show pictures in the next post!

Won't you come and help?
