RELIEF PH: Help Flooded Victims of Monsoon Rains

Found this on FACEBOOK.
The 08/07/12 Rainfall is now more than Ondoy's.
And to think its not even a Typhoon.
Hi Coffeeholics. How are you guys? Its been raining constantly for several days already. Classes and work has been suspended due to the floods and rain. I hope and pray that all of you are safe and sound and dry in your own homes. I am one of the blessed people who live in a place where there aren't any flood so our whole family is snugly safe at home. Still our hearts go out to our kababayans who are stranded and whose houses are flooded. Our prayers are with you all.




I've been blog hopping throughout the day and stayed in tune on twitter, fb, and the news with whats happening and I decided to compile information on what we can do for our kababayans right now like donation centers or locations. If you are on twitter the best way to check is by searching #ReliefPH.   


DONATION CENTERS
UPDATE: Please make sure that the place you are donating your items to are GENUINE. Unfortunately there are people who will take advantage of all this generosity. But there's still good news. I just read on twitter that and ANONYMOUS PERSON donated a WHOLE TRUCK OF RICE (bigas). Hearing such things.. giving out whether big or small really is heartwarming. Truly it is in the face of trials and difficulties we all learn to work together. God bless you guys!
