MANDALUYONG CITY -- More than a month after Super Typhoon Odette blew off the roofs of thousands of homes, volunteers from the country's premier humanitarian organization continue to send aid to typhoon-stricken communities.

"The help of the Red Cross doesn't stop with providing hot meals, relief items, and giving access to safe and clean water. We will be here to help the people recover every step of the way," said PRC Chairman and CEO Sen. Dick Gordon.

As part of the PRC's long-term recovery efforts, volunteers help families build back their homes by providing Shelter Toolkits and Corrugated Galvanized Iron sheets. As of January 27, 2022, the PRC has distributed Shelter Toolkits to 300 families in Bohol, 84 families in Palawan, and 464 families in Southern Leyte. Meanwhile, volunteers have provided Shelter Toolkits to 148 families and Corrugated Galvanized Iron sheets to 50 families in Siargao Island.

The Red Cross has always done their best to provide support and assistance via humanitarian efforts in their constant quest to reduce devastation and improve the quality of the lives of the victims of any disaster. (Philippine Red Cross)
