Super Typhoon Haiyan, a category 5 storm-and perhaps the strongest storm ever recorded-swept
through the Philippines on Friday, November 8, causing extensive damage, displacing at least 670,000 people, and affecting a total of 11.3 million people. Initial estimated numbers of those killed and injured by the super storm areexpected to climb.
The United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR) is providing emergency food, water, and water purification tablets to 7,500 individuals (or 1,500 families) in Tacloban City in Leyte Province. The city was devastated by the typhoon and many there have no access to food, water, or medicine.
Give generously to International Disaster Response, Advance #982450, to support UMCOR
Philippines staff and volunteers as they work tirelessly to provide assistance to those in need.
