Typhoon Haiyan, one of the most powerful typhoon on record, hit Central Philippines on November 8 and left cities and towns in ruins, leaving people with no power and communication lines. The death toll is feared to reach 10,000 while more than 600,000 people are displaced. Samar and Leyte provinces in Central Philippines have been severely devastated by Typhoon Haiyan, leaving coastal towns without food, water, and electricity. There is high need for basic items in the most devastated areas.Civic Force and Citizen's Disaster Response as members of the Asia Pacific Alliance for Disaster Management will deliver relief goods in Central Philippines at the earliest stage.

Civic Force, together with other members of the Asia Pacific Alliance for Disaster Management, have begun to raise funds to support our emergency response in Samar and Leyte provinces. We will work with our Philippine member Citizens' Disaster Response Center to deliver emergency relief goods to affected families as soon as possible. The relief packs will contain food, hygiene products, sleeping kits, and medicines good for a 5-person household.

Your support will help lives in crisis.
