Typhoon Haiyan Has Destroyed Many Communities In The Philippines, Killing As Many As 10,000 Men, Women, And Children

The storm, called Yolanda in the Philippines, moved across the country around 25 miles per hour, roughly twice as fast as Typhoon Bopha, which killed more than a thousand people last year, experts said.

Most of the deaths appear to have been caused by surging sea water strewn with debris that many described as similar to a tsunami, which levelled houses and drowned hundreds of people.

TIP: The BEST Help To Offer Is Cash Donations, As In-Kind Donations Of Clothes Could Cause Distress, Instead Of Help

We do not encourage contributions in-kind, largely because of the substantial cost of shipping goods and cost of storage at the disaster location.

How can I donate goods, such as clothing and blankets, to help the people affected by disasters?
We do not encourage contributions in-kind, largely because of the substantial cost of shipping goods and cost of storage at the disaster location.

With cash donations, MERCY Malaysia is able to purchase supplies in local regions or closer to the affected areas. This ensures that donation from the public is channeled to the people who need it most, and not utilised unnecessarily to cover logistic costs such as transportation, fuel and warehouse space rental.

Purchasing goods at the affected region also helps to stimulate the local economy of the people affected by the disaster, and helps them rebuild their life faster.
