My sister-in-laws family have lost their homes and on her mothers side we can't ascertain if they are still alive as the areas worst hit. So if you can please give to
Please read this one ) Wanted to call upon everyone for help, especially as you must be aware of the events in the Philippines. Basically you might be asking yourself, how does that effect Darryn Clarke from Whitley Bay! Well, as you may or may not know, my wife is from Aklan province and houses have been flattened, so many fallen trees and power is still off.
The village is called Ibajay in Aklan and my Mother in Law brothers, sisters and their children live in a small coastal village next to Tacloban. Both areas were hit hard by the Typhoon Yolanda.
By good fortune my wife’s brothers are safe but need to rebuild and clean up, as you can see from the pictures a lot of trees have come down and we now have a skylight in Kuya (Brother) Jojo bedroom and no power. I’ll post more photos soon but the village has one generator to recharge a mobile. Myself and other family members outside of the Philippines have sent money to Pastor Nonoy to help a couple of families that have very little money or material to fix the damage. Who is Pastor Nonoy you might be asking? He is a longtime family friend and looks after the local church (the core of this community) and the local school attached to the church. Sadly, so far we’ve not heard yet from our family in Tacloban but hopefully we’ll hear something in the coming days!
I’ve hesitated enough this week and decided it’s time to help more or regret not helping enough! I’ve set up a donation link with an existing verified PayPal account and even if we raise £10 it is enough to help a family in Ibajay village or surrounding villages that life has been turned upside down this week. There is also another Typhoon on the way, which could bring heavy rains so I’d expect there might be more damage or food issues and having no roof won’t help!
We can be sure that 100% of the donations get spent in the right places and reach the people that need it. I can also promise that any donations will go direct to Paster Nonoy and be given where needed to rebuild a community. I’ll not send any donations anywhere without telling all where it’s going and who it will help.
I’ve set up this donation PayPal button. I’m not expecting much but even £5 makes a big different for materials to rebuild. We’ve helped the brothers and a few families at the weekend; if you were thinking about giving then we can help more families in the area and you will know where the money is going. Message me if you want my contact number or home address.
Also, if you can share this message that might also help raise more for other families in the community and we can get the money to the people not the governments.
