Dear Rtn. Ed Mattson,
Thank you for your email. In our province of Laguna all coastal towns were affected including our town Cabuyao. So I can only talk about the situation in our town of Cabuyao, Province of Laguna, Philippines.
Six (6) coastal barangays (villages) were submerged during the typhoons that hit us this month. More or less 10,000 families lives in these villages. About 2,500 families are still in the evacuation centers.
So far we have been experiencing good weather for a few days now enabling the waters of the lake to recede slightly. However, there are areas still in chest-deep waters. Hence,residents of these areas still can not return to their own residences and are forced to stay in public elementary and national high schools.
By day the students uses the classrooms and by night its the evacuees turn to use the classrooms. This situation has affected the students' learning. Noting this situation, we got help from the Shelter Box Response Team organization. Our town of Cabuyao was allocated 22 shelter box and 12 shelter box tents, which are being taken cared of by the Rotary Club of Cabuyao Circles and Rotary Club of Cabuyao, respectively. We transfered some evacuees to these shelter boxes and tents to alleviate the situation in the school classrooms serving as temporary evacuation area. However these number of tents can only accomodate about 66 families.
Right now potable or clean drinking water is now being considered a major concern by almost everybody. Those in their respective homes but still submerged in knee deep waters and those in the evacuation centers including our two Shelter box camp rely on few deep well water pumps (manual). For the drinking needs of the infants and children they buy purified water. But only a few of these people are moneyed enough to buy the purified water hence, they rely purely on the deep well.
Our Rotary District 3820 has been designated benificiary of AquaBox, a water purifying contraption. But only a few were allocated to our District 3820, due to logistical constraint, which is one of the hardest hit by the floodings. Our Town of Cabuyao, thru our 2 RCs, may only get one AquaBox which is not enough. Therefore your donation of WaterBox will be most welcome.
1. Like with the Shelter Box and AquaBox the consignee should be our District 3820 Governor first and then they in turn distribute the waterboxes to the individual concerned rotary clubs who in turn strategically assign the units to a particular pre-determined area (most probably it will be placed on any of our two shelter box camps in case we are allocated only one unit).
2. We take the responsibility of taking the pictures or documenting the Rotary humanitarian activities and in sending the necessary thank yous and appreciation to donors.
3. As mentioned above, our priority are the two shelter box camps we put up. One in the village of Marinig and the other one in the village of Gulod, all of Cabuyao. If you can only allocate 1 waterbox to us then it is anyone of our clubs which may not recieve the AquaBox who eill be the beneficiary. However, if we can be allocated more, second in priority are the following villages with evacuation centers in schools, Bigaa Village, Butong Village, Marinig Village and Gulod Village.
4. Labeling in English is recommended.
The problem now is the new strong typhoon will be hitting just over our province and that will really like going back to the situation 3 weeks ago.
I hope I can be of much help to you in your planning.

RQUEST FROM RC MAKATI DOCTOR

Subject: Re: Update on Disaster Needs
From: healthyways@tri-isys.com
Dear Sir:
I am a doctor by profession and in the practice of alternative medicine.As cases of Leptospirosis is running high due to the floodings, it would be of great help to us if we can solicit an HBOT machine also known as HyperbaricOxygen Therapy chamber.
As the causitive agent of Leptospirosis is bacteria, studies have shown increasing
levels of oxygen prevents multiplication of bacteria thus helping in the arrest of the
bacteria while waiting for the anti-microbials to work on he patient. A used machine
is okay so long as it is working then we can start therapy for this patients that are
dying everyday.
I have forwarded your message about the waterbox kits to our Incumbentpresident and he will get back to you. Kindly address to me the issue aboutthe HBOTas I would like to make it a joint project with your club. I am theIPP of our club the Rotary Club of Makati Northwest. Thanks for the helpbeing extended. We look forward to having projects with you.

REPORT FROM THE PHILIPPINES
The Rotary Club of Cabuyao and Rotary Club of Cabuyao Circle, having witnessed the devastation and destruction brought about by typhoon “Ondoy”, particularly in the shoreline Baranggays of Cabuyao, have jointly mobilized our resources and of our families, friends, and other generous Rotary Clubs of District 3820. We who heeded the urgent plea towards providing preliminary food relief to almost a thousand displaced families are presently staying in various evacuation centers in Cabuyao.As of this time we have distributed over seven hundred (700) relief
bags containing grocery items and dry clothes to the affected families. However, this initial and immediate effort is short of what is desperately needed. We realize that such a task is too big if we rely only on our capabilities and already tapped resources. Thus, we come to you with hope that together, we can be allies in helping our community back to its feet once again. Let us assist you in sending help to the victims of “Ondoy” in our community.In order to provide immediate aide to those in the evacuation centers, our organization is gladly offering our services to bring and distribute your donations (easy to cook food, potable water and/or cash) along
with the relief goods that we are continually packing for distribution. Also, we are looking at providing the most affected families who have lost their homes to attain transitional housing. This endeavor may be huge, but all together, we can make it happen. We will be glad to discuss with you other short-term and long term assistances and developmental programs for the victims of "Ondoy” at any time you can accommodate us. The need is urgent and our efforts are sincere. Let us take this chance to give back to our community.Thank you and we are looking forward to a fruitful partnership with you.

Rotary Club of Mishawaka, IN-District 6540
Dear RTN ED,
It is heartwarming to know that fellow Rotarians from the different districts and countries
around the world have shown their concern by sending disaster relief aids of all kinds.
The recent typhoons "Ondoy" & "Pepeng" has rendered lots of our fellowmen homeless,
for some, the calamity was even much worse as it deprived then of their means of
livelihood while others were beset with deaths and or serious illness related to the disaster,
but more devastating is the hopelessness of facing tomorrow.
Rotary Club of Makati Legazpi took the lead as it joined hands with the different Rotary
Clubs of District 3830, other NGOs & Institution to extend assistance to alleviate them
from their sufferings and more importantly assist them to face the challenges towards
normalcy and life, to begin with, on a more sustained support program in the rehabilitation
/reconstruction of their lives as a person, as a family with self respect and dignity as a
human being.
So it is with great joy and relief that your offer to help was timely, as we expect another
strong typhoon "santi" to hit not only metro manila but also central & southern Luzon and
the Bicol region.....and their needs are continuing.
Here are the data on your needed update:
1) Consignee for shipments of WaterBoxes
Dr. Angelica R Abella ( cel +63.917.787.0827)
President, Rotary Club of Makati Legazpi, District 3830
2/f 11 West Bldg, # 11 West Capitol Drive

Tel # +632.634.2950 / +632.381.8330
or
# 1 LPL Ave, Levitown Executive
Bgy Don Bosco, Paranaque city, Philippines
2) We will definitely send you pictures, as we document the
distribution to benificiaries, further we will send you reports of this activities.
3) Metro Manila, Laguna, Bulacan, Pangasinan, and the rest of Northern Luzon
4) English would be fine.
It is with gratefulness that we anticipate from the members of the Humanitarian Networks -
disaster relief aid of any kind.
Thank you.
