Thank You again so much.

 

OK thanks Rechel, we'll get that on as soon as we can -- our little truck is out in the village today, but should come home soon.

 

That delivery was made today -- on our way up to the Japanese Shrine. List of recipients will be delivered to Rechel in a coupla days... Thanks as before, for your excellent facilitating!

 

D.I Members and Thursday Club..
My friend Rowena from Bayawan my long time helping friend come with to baranggay Taclobo Dumaguete distributing Secondary help sets, Clothes, under wears for kids, Rice, Sardines and Noodles soup set. for 30 Families wash out Victims... pictures are in my Profile.

We also had Sendong Shopping at Unitop today.. as I received email From Ma'am Magdalena Arbas..
BARANGAY JUNOB, DUMAGUETE. VICTIMS OF TYPHOON SENDONG 90 Families
and call and Txt from Baranggay Palinpinun Sibulan 80 families wash out.
another busy day.

 

Just if you think our help is over, you are slightly wrong. I just had a look at Rechel's logistics and I have no idea how she does that all, including visiting the places, making name-lists (don't worry I won't post them here), doing the shopping-orders, organizing helpers and pick-ups, deliveries AND taking care of 2 Kids and a grumpy German.
A special thanks to Ate Bayawan who stays now for weeks with us already and supports us with never ending energy.

Being in our "bodega", I don't really see the huge amount of items is going in and out all the time, it is a madhouse anyway so it looks chaotic. When I realized the numbers on the list below, I don't wonder anymore.

Many helping hands were needed and your guys donations and effort made that all possible. Following a few places where your support went to up to now. (There are some days missing, but I did not see them in the stacks of papers, receipts and name-lists on the first view)

Now we wait for the pickup of secondary sets the 90 washed out for Barangay Junob, before shopping for another 100 or so.

... and it goes on...

I received another 100$ via PayPal from my friend Marga, she was long time a Peace Corps volunteer in Dumaguete and a big part of her heart is still here, thanks a lot...

With the work of the last weeks it seems like the word got out, and affected the barangays know our project already and send their multicab and some workers to assist picking up stuff. That makes the logistic a bit easier for us.

Barangay Officials picking up goods for 90 Secondary Relief Packs:


... With their multicab


Kids at Barangay Junob


That's how the victims in Junob exist somehow at the moment:





We always handed out the items to the victims directly, this time we decided to bring the relief goods direct to the areas, where they stay and sort all there just before handing out, to minimize "loosing" item on mysterious ways




​

... next on the list was again school supply and today (Fri) 80 washed out families in Sibulan Barangay Tubtubon

 

An admirable effort from all of you "on the ground" and all contributors. I like to see that in a moment of need such as this tragedy, differences are set aside and good hearted people unite to help the lesser lucky. WELL DONE!!

 

following just the first small set of pictures from our help the last few days:

........... and still the support arrives. Thanks to Jim and Evelyn (Jimeve) for their recent donation.
