Make a difference and show your love and support for the Philippines as we gather together for a night of music, poetry, comedy, dancing, and partying to benefit the Typhoon Frank relief effort!
Typhoon Frank is considered one of the worst typhoons of the year, displacing over one million people and causing 4 billion pesos worth of damages to infrastructure and agriculture. A total of 557 individuals perished, and according to the latest reports, 101 still remain unidentified.
It has been over two months since the typhoon hit. Predictably, public attention has been diverted to other national issues. Away from the limelight, families still continue to suffer from lack of adequate homes, food and medical attention. We appeal to you to constantly remember our fellow kababayans still suffering from this tragedy.
