Typhoon Odette hit the Philippines
The
Typhoon left hundreds dead and hundreds of thousands of
families homeless. Initial reports showed devastation
across many areas of the impacted regions, but it is only
over the subsequent weeks that the full scale of damage
has come to light. Initial assessments only hinted at the
scale of destruction – nearly 1.7 million houses damaged
or destroyed, massive damage to infrastructure,
agricultural land, fishing communities and livelihoods
across a vast geographic area of the country. In total,
the Typhoon severely affected an estimated 9.9 million
people across the six worst hit regions, leaving about 2.4
million people in need of assistance.

July 2022 - In
May 2022, ADRA (Adventist Development and
Relief Agency Philippines) received 200 water
survival boxes from the Rotary Club of Chelwood
Bridge and with the aid of local partners began
distributing them. A total of 200 households
received a water survival box. This assistance
provided the family beneficiaries with access to
safe water, hygiene, dignity and shelter supplies
addressing the identified needs of the displaced
families. Broken down this relates to bringing much
needed aid to 853 individuals in the
Region/Provinces of ; VI/ Iloilo and Capiz, - CARAGA

Region 8/ Southern Leyte. Without your

been possible. Thank you. |
