Project Report | Feb 10, 2015
1-Year On Typhoon Haiyan Recovery & Rebuilding

By Bernadette Martin | Project Manager - World Vision US

Twelve months on, more than 1 million people have received humanitarian assistance, including 473,000 children, as part of World Vision’s Typhoon Haiyan disaster response. In the immediate days and weeks after the disaster, World Vision staff delivered emergency assistance to 789,816 people, with items such as food, shelter materials, kitchen and hygiene kits, cash, blankets, mosquito nets, and sleeping mats. In the ensuing months, as work transitioned from the relief to recovery, 321,403 people received help rebuilding homes and livelihoods. 

As the Recovery Phase wound down, the focus shifted to sustainable rehabilitation efforts, which will last at least through December 2015. The Rehabilitation Phase will continue a strong focus on livelihood recovery activities—especially those that will help address needs in shelter, education, water, sanitation, and hygiene. Rehabilitation activities also will provide durable and resilient housing for vulnerable families that required resettlement from zones deemed by the government as too dangerous to occupy. 

World Vision is grateful for your compassionate partnership. Support from donors like you continues to have an enormous impact on thousands of people around the world, alleviating needless suffering and giving hope to children and their families who have been affected by tragedy. 

Thank you for joining us in the effort to demonstrate that survivors of this typhoon were not alone in their time of need!
