How to Help Sendong Victims*
*Updated as of 12/20/11, 11:25 am. Feel free to come back for new info.
“Nobody saw it coming.”
Nobody saw the deaths coming, but somebody must have known that there is a typhoon and that it will be a strong one. TIME’s Global Spin is right, we were truly unprepared for tropical storm Sendong. Then again, now is not the time for Filipinos to point fingers at each other. I truly believe that we are a nation of caring and compassionate individuals. Now is the time to extend our helping hands.
