| Children’s Hour Supports Typhoon Pedring Victims |
|
24 families from Barangay Bulusan, Libon, Albay will receive repair kits from Children's Hour through Habitat for Humanity. Last September 2011, typhoon Pedring affected 9 regions in Luzon, one of which was Bicol; specifically 86 barangays, 14,657 families and 73,324 individuals. To date, there are still families in the area that stay in shelter boxes/tent or with their relatives. The repair kits will allow the 24 families restore their houses to liveable conditions.
