Dear All Friends,
Greetings from Leyte. Harvesting hope, this is our badge and slogan here in Leyte as we continue to provide safe sanitation activities for the people affected by Typhoon Haiyan. A group of writers from the UCLA's The Daily Bruin came here few weeks back and featured our work.

Last Saturday two of GlobalGiving senior officers, Britt Lake and Alison Carlman came here to visit our project sites. From Tacloban City, we toured them to Palo, Leyte then after, they motored to Ormoc City and visited one more temporary shelter in Concepcion. Then they went to a mountain barangay, Mahayahay where we are implementing safe sanitation activities. They saw for themselves the Filipino, robust, low-cost and safe toilets that we have constructed in area. Later that day, they went to our main office cum livelihood demonstration farm where our in-house adviser, Elmer Sayre briefed them about the entire coverage and reach of our initiatives in Leyte and Samar. Elmer also demonstrated to them the procedure in pre-fabricating and installing our toilets.
All in all, our work here is gaining ground, as we look forward to the first year anniversary of the mega-typhoon come November 8.
Hoping for your continuing support as we expand our initiatives.
Very sincerely yours,
Cora
