affinity: “New slippers for a New Year”: CDOKada’s outreach for the Typhoon Sendong victims
Hi everyone! How are you all?
If you have heard the news lately, you will know that Cagayan de Oro City was one of the most greatly affected areas by the typhoon Sendong (Washi -Int’l name). There were so many casualties after the December 16, 2011 flashflood and many were left homeless.
CDOKada would like to reach out to the affected families who are now in the evacuation centers waiting for blessings from groups like us. Last December 2010, we did an outreach activity called “30 slippers for Christmas” (tumblr post here: http://cdokada.tumblr.com/post/2505436481) wherein we were able to donate slippers for the beneficiaries of CDO Street Tutorials.
Due to the recent calamity, we would like to bring back the said outreach and this time, we hope to collect more as there are more who need our donations. “NEW SLIPPERS FOR A NEW YEAR”, that is.
We appeal to our CDOKada members, tumblr friends, and other interested parties to help us in this great endeavor. You may participate by:
a. donating at least 2 pairs of slippers (any size and brand will do) and/or
b. contributing any amount (we will be the one to purchase the slippers)
You may also donate other stuff aside from slippers.
We plan to distribute the slippers on December 30, 2011. This will be a New Year’s treat for our beneficiaries.
Rest assured, your contributions will be acknowledged and will be given to those who need them the most. There are CDOKada members who were affected by the typhoon but this will not hinder us from reaching out to others.
Should you wish to contribute or if you have any query, you may contact us at 09273544318 or 09177195223 or 09276902232. Donations are accepted until December 30, 2011; 2pm.
