Eco Warrior's Village Heavily Damaged by Odette

These photos were taken from our Eco Warrior’s community in Jacana, Puerto Princesa City. Most of the houses were torn down by the strong winds of Typhoon Odette. Many were in total ruins and some have broken roofs and walls from their shanties which were made of materials they gathered from collecting garbages around our city. We have initially distributed food packs and organized a community kitchen a day after the typhoon. We have been feeding lunch for 100 individuals

Kilos Agad! Salamat PZC Staff

Isang araw matapos rumagasa si Odette sa Palawan, kami ay nagsimulang magbalot ng tig-dalawang kilo ng bigas kasama ang ilang noodles at sardinas upang agad matugunan ang pangangailangan ng aming mga kasamahan sa kooperatiba. Sa halagang Php4,000 nagsimula kaming tumulong sa ating mga kababayan, napakaliit na halaga ngunit malaki ang kahulugan dahil sa panahong ito ay walang bangko at walang ATM para mag withdraw dahil sa pagkasira ng communication lines sa buong lalawigan.
