Support #YolandaActionWeekend for #ReliefPH : Eat to Help #YolandaPH Victims and Build #StrongerPH

This week we are plagued with depressing news that all pointed to the devastating effect of Super Typhoon Yolanda (Haiyan) to our country. Philippines as a nation is currently wounded - bleeding profusely even. Yet, it is during times like this that the resilient spirit of Filipinos shines through. There are a lot of ways to help Typhoon Yolanda Victims, but we know that we can do more.

Given this, Yolanda Action Weekend spearheaded by Jeremy Slagle of Mr. Delicious was created. It aims to unite Philippine Food Industry including its media partners to extend help to Typhoon Yolanda victims. All participating restaurants and other food businesses pledged to donate portion of their proceeds this weekend to the Philippine Red Cross.

Yolanda Action Weekend believes that through their partnership with Philippine Red Cross, all help will be properly disseminated to those who are suffering from the aftermath of Typhoon Yolanda. With this, if you are going to dine out this weekend, may we suggest to please consider dining and/or buying food from the participants. 

Ways to Help Typhoon Yolanda / Haiyan Victims

It has been almost a week now since Super Typhoon Yolanda (Haiyan) shook Visayas region to the core leaving our country grieving for lost lives and crushed spirits. To say that what happened particularly in Tacloban is heartbreaking would be an understatement. In reality, it is a kind of tragedy that wounds soul – deeply.

The news about Typhoon Yolanda and its aftermath suggests that it may take a while before our countrymen in Visayas to fully recover and rebuild their lives. Thus, they need all the help they could get. We may not have the foolproof formula to heal the hurt of those are gravely affected, but we can do something, at least.

There are a lot of ways to help Typhoon Yolanda Victims, and the information I have provided here are just some of them. Shout out to dear friend Spanky Enriquez for helping us gather these details on how to extend our help.
