Philippines needs your help 🙏🏻
Imagine walking into your classroom on the very first day of school, filled with excitement, only for the ground to violently shatter beneath you 💔
On Monday morning, 8 June, this became a terrifying reality for millions of children in Mindanao, Philippines, when a devastating 7.8-magnitude earthquake struck. Instead of celebrating a new school year, terrified children were forced to run for their lives. At least 37 lives have been lost, hundreds are injured, and constant aftershocks are forcing families to sleep in the streets.
This tragedy hits incredibly close to home for the GAiN Australia community. Having run medical missions in General Santos City and visited Davao City earlier this year, our hearts are completely broken for the people we have come to love.
We are mobilising immediately to support our trusted local partners on the ground to deliver food, water, shelter, and medical supplies.
Will you partner with us to bring urgent aid to Mindanao today? 🫶🏻
