Dear All Friends,
Greetings from Leyte and thank you very much for your very generous support to our project to build toilets for Typhoon Haiyan survivors. Last week we were able to provide toilets to 116 beneficiaries living in the municipalities of Lawaan, Giporlos and Balangiga in Eastern Samar. Eastern Samar was badly hit with the typhoon making its first landfall in Guiuan and then hitting Tacloban. Eastern Samar is not so well supported perhaps because it is Tacloban who is always in the radar and news. We are partnering with a local group of volunteer-survivors in selecting the most needy beneficiaries and then installing the toilets together with them. The group is Balangiga without Borders.
We will continue installing toilets in Leyte and Samar for the next 2-3 years as damage to the areas is very extensive. Toilets is also last priority by international aid so this will be our focus.
Hoping for your continuing support to our project. Please inform your friends and colleagues about our work. Our link is,

Thank you so much.
Very sincerely yours,
Cora
