While the country was slowly recovering from the destruction brought by the previous typhoons Rolly and Siony, Ulysses brought it to its knees again. The typhoon destroyed homes and displaced families and individuals in Catanduanes, Albay, Marikina, Rizal, and more. These hardest-hit areas need all the help they can get. Those of us who’ve got cash or food and shelter to share can send help through the following donation drives:
