No act of kindness, however small, is ever wasted.

Another super typhoon (Parma) is expected to come anytime today until tomorrow later morning or early afternoon. My countrymen have not yet recovered and most have not even been rescued, yet, from the destruction caused by tropical storm Ketsana (local name: Ondoy). Still so many are missing. Too many are stuck in evacuation centers with little or no food. Children are going hungry and diseases are becoming rampant. Lavatories are inadequate for the thousands of displaced people in each evacuation area. Not enough medicines for all who started to get sick. Many places are still submerged in flood waters and there are people trapped without food and drinks for days. Countless have lost their houses and properties. Most hospitals and clinics in the widely affected areas have also halted their operations.

This is just a picture of what became of the Northern part of the Philippines. How can these people recover?

We all can do something with our own little efforts. It doesn’t have to be grand. Whatever you can share/give, will be more than helpful.

“The bread in your cupboard belongs to the hungry man; the coat hanging unused in your closet belongs to the man who needs it; the shoes rotting in your closet belong to the man who has none; the money which you hoard in the bank belongs to the poor. You do wrong to everyone you could help, but fail to help.” ~ St. Basil the Great

The question for all us now is what can we do to help?
