I can't even begin to fathom the devastation super typhoon Yolanda {Haiyan} has caused some parts of my beloved country. It was an apocalyptic event. The aftermath is just too much to take in and to think that I'm just watching that on television. To say that the victims went through hell would be an understatement.
I know that a lot of people all over the world want to help the victims of this highly unfortunate event but don't know how. I've collated some of the reputable agencies that accept donations for the victims of super typhoon Yolanda.
Please be careful when donating to various agencies. Make sure that they have extraordinary credentials before you give them your money. A lot of crooked people will take this opportunity to pursue selfish acts. It is horrendous, but then some people are simply diabolic.
