Typhoon Odette in the Philippines

Typhoon Rai, known locally as Odette, hit the Philippines last Thursday, December 16, 2021. It made 9 landfalls in the provinces of Surigao del Norte, Dinagat Islands, Southern Leyte, Bohol, Cebu, Negros Oriental and Palawan, bringing torrential rains, violent winds, landslides, and storm surges before exiting in the West Philippines Sea. As of December 20, 2021, more than 200 people died, 239 persons injured, and 52 were missing, according to the Philippine National Police. The numbers have yet to be verified by the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC). The Filipinos are in dire need of our prayers and relief as damages left homes devastated, with no power, signal, food, and water supply. If you find it in your heart to be of help, we at the Philippine Sending Council of SEND, would gladly be of assistance in extending your help.
