Dear All Friends,
Greetings from Leyte. A few days ago was the first year anniversary of Typhoon Yolanda and there were many events and activities all over the province. The survivors are slowly recovering, although painfully for some. The struggle is daily and one of our initiatives is to provide the survivors with decent, although low-cost housing which is far more better than them staying in tents and temporary shelters called bunk-houses. The bunk-houses are very small rooms where the entire family is housed and there is very little privacy. With your donation we are constructing decent Filipino homes with a bedroom and a toilet. A garden will be established by the beneficiaries in the available spaces around the house. The house will be built with coconut timber from the so many coconut trees destroyed during the typhoon and still useful. The roof is galvanized iron and the walls made of bamboo mats.
Please continue supporting our home-building project via GlobalGiving. Please do inform your friends and colleagues too. Thank you very much.

Very sincerely yours,
