Dear Friend,
Warm greetings and thank you very much for your generous support to our project providing food relief to those affected by extreme weather events here. The recurrence of typhoons and heavy rains or extreme dry condition is getting more frequent and poor farming families living in remote villages have a hard time to cope-up. This problem is exacerbated by the fact that family control is not so much practiced here especially for poor families because their belief is that children are gifts of God as well as that children are able to help in heavy farm activities when they grow up. The government is doing education campaign to limit the number of children but there is little success in this matter. During this reporting period, we provided food packs donated by a local organization to 112 poor families living in Digkilaan village in Misamis Oriental province. Our recipients are very happy to receive the food packs and we seek additional support as there are more requests coming up from nearby villages.
Again thank you very much for your generous support.
Very sincerely yours,
Cora
