Story
Typhoon Haiyan
Typhoon Haiyan struck in November 2013, causing devastation to hundreds of thousands of local people, destroying families, homes and lives. Think of the destruction caused by the floods in the UK, and then multiply this by a thousand. We are talking about whole communities left without electricity, shelter and basic sanitation. Children scrapping for food in rubbish-tips.
But, there is hope. All Hands Volunteers are striving to make a difference. To re-build a community. To install the basic infrastructure we take for granted and to save lives.
Donate to Project Leyte
We are travelling to the Philippines in April to help All Hands with Project Leyte. Working in a challenging and physical environment that is a far cry from the safety of the office, our aim is to help the relief effort by assisting with the clean-up and making a difference.
Please donate to help All Hands continue with Project Leyte. Find out more about our campaign.
The number of people All Hands will be able to assist largely depends on how much funding can be quickly secured. Your donation will support a volunteer working on a project in the Philippines. This covers tools, materials, 3 daily meals, housing, water, transportation, on-site support, and other miscellaneous items. As such, at least $450,000 is required in new funding to support this response of over 125 volunteers on the ground on a daily basis, for approximately 6 months.
Please help us raise: £1,000
Help us rebuild a whole community that has been devastated by Typhoon Haiyan, YOU can make a difference...
Getting our message out
We aim to raise awareness through various social media campaigns and any donations are welcomed to help us on our mission to rebuild Leyte. We also pledge to include the names of our supporting businesses on printed t-shirts, and provide email and video updates throughout our campaign highlighting life in the Philippines and how your donations are helping to save and rebuild lives.
HANDS IN for OUR campaign
If you support our campaign, and would like to help us personally then please donate directly to our paypal account through our website.
We will be working in a very bleak and dangerous environment where we need to ensure we have the appropriate clothing to prevent accidents and relevant vaccinations to protect us from deadly diseases and illnesses.
Our flights have kindly been sponsored by Qatar Airways but we still need donations to help cover the costs of our travel, vaccinations, accommodation and food at the project, plus outdoor work wear, just to make this campaign possible and so we can help with Project Leyte.
GIVE something special
We do appreciate that you may not be able to support us financial, however if you would still like to be involved and can donate colouring books, teddies, clothing, football shirts etc we would be very appreciative. Please contact us at handsinUK
