Help Iligan and Cagayan de Oro's Victims of Typhoon Sendong (Washi)

My heart is aching upon watching several photos taken by my friends on Facebook of those victims of Typhoon Sendong. In my thought, how tragic event this had happened to Iligan and Cagayan de Oro - the cities where I gained my degree and have spent my first employment. I couldn't imagine the wrath it brought to all residences in the area.

For 4 years studying in Iligan and 2 years living in Cagayan de Oro, I can feel their pain. The two cities have been part of my journey and I wish I can go there to be a volunteer. Good thing is one friend of mine posted the idea of blogging the calamity. I hope through this, I can contribute a little help to them.

Currently, they have no water supply, stores and supermarkets are running out of bottled water too. People are still looking for shelter because their houses has been devastated by flood and muddy.

This post's from my friend:

The saddest thing is, the calamity happened nearly Christmas where people should celebrate and rejoice in their individual houses but the scenario of typhoon Sendong ruined everything. I believe plenty of families are now back to zero.

The following photos were copied from Facebook. I hope these will touch your heart and your little help could be so big to all the victims.
