Here's how you can help make a difference! Super Typhoon Haiyan, which hit the Philippines this weekend, is known as the most powerful hurricane in recorded history.  The impacts have been devastating - wiping out entire neighborhoods and with an expected death toll of 10,000 in Tacloban alone. The storm affected 9 million people in 36 provinces and displacing 600,000 people. Medical supplies, food and water are scarce with survivors going on days without food and water.   We launched “Bundles of Joy and Letters of Hope” as a grassroots movement to organize our relief efforts in the Visayas region, which was most hit by the Typhoon. Please support relief efforts by sending a bundle of joy for immediate assistance.   One “Bundle of Joy” for $10 can provide food, water, clothing, vitamins, and light. Our goal is to reach $50,000 by the end of the week. If we can get 50 people commit to raise $1,000 to their own networks, we can provide 5,000 “Bundles of Joy” to Malapascua, Camotes, Bantayan, Tacloban, and Ormoc City. Each bundle of Joy will have a "Letter of Hope" from our local and international community to uplift the spirits of our recovering friends affected by the storm.      To send donations, please send to Paypal accounts: PAYPAL: anya.lim@anthillfabricgallery.com   BDO: Account Name: Joy Anya Lim Account #: 1720150263   $10 1 BUNDLE OF JOY 1 eco friendly bag 5 canned goods 1 pack crackers (7 oz) 4 1L water 3 packs of vitamin C 2 candles 2 matches 1 set of clothing YOUR Letters of hope   $1000 100 BUNDLES OF JOY 100 eco friendly bags 500 canned goods 100 pack crackers (7 oz) 400 1L water 300 packs of vitamin C 200 candles 200 matches Donated clothing and blankets YOUR Letters of hope If you are unable to help in monetary contributions, please forward this email or the following links below to your friends and family:  Rappler’s #ReliefPH: Victims of Typhoon Yolanda need your help CNN’s how to help typhoon Haiyan Huffington Post’s Typhoon Haiyan, here’s how you can help If you are interested in volunteering, please enter your details here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1f8x1_0iLWS4bvSgvKftIaMoG-cnrn8RUGvI8PXmiRAg/viewform  You can also write the Typhoon Haiyan survivors “Letters of Hope.” To send your “Letter of Hope” to Typhoon Haiyan survivors , write your message on our Facebook wall.
