The project will provide water, health, sanitation and hygiene support for 2,500 poor families affected by the earthquake occurring on June 8, 2026 in Mindanao. We will start will the provision of basic needs and then provide vegetable gardening support so that beneficiaries will be able to grow their own food. We will focus on poor farming villages in hardest affected areas.
The massive earthquake that occurred June 8, 2026 have destroyed homes, properties and livelihoods across Mindanao. Affected residents live in fear of aftershocks and secondary occurrence and there is a need to provide food, shelter and other needs. Water filter is very much needed too as water sources are compromised. Long-term support will be assisting the survivors with food production inputs so that they will be able to grow their own food.
We will provide food, shelter and other needs and focusing on remote, hard to reach villages. Sometimes support comes only in areas near the roadside and we will consider them last priority. A large component of our response will be to promote vegetable gardening among the affected families so that they are able to improve their nutrition and income.
Eventual recovery of very poor, vulnerable families affected by the earthquake. Our support is crucial and we are one of the best in disaster response with long-term experience doing similar initiatives.
