PSA: Help Ketsana Victims in the Philippines..

[Hara_Juku Tgirl]

MANILA –Hollywood stars called on their fellow Americans to help the victims of tropical storm Ondoy (international codename Ketsana) in the Philippines as they expressed their sympathies to the thousands of affected Filipinos.

Demi Moore wrote in her Twitter account that the Filipino victims are in dire need of assistance. To help, she urged them to call the American Red Cross.

“Typhoon victims in Philippines in dire need of food/clothing. Call the American Red Cross to help. 18004357669,” the “Ghost” star wrote.

Alyssa Milano tweeted the same message and posted an Associated Press article reporting the devastation caused by Ondoy.

International singer Josh Groban , meanwhile, tweeted: “My heart goes out to my friends in the Philippines.”

The death toll from the onslaught of tropical storm Ondoy (international code name Ketsana) rose to 52 as of Sunday noon, the National Disaster Coordinating Council (NDCC) said.

The number of affected people rose to nearly 300,000.

This might came a bit late. But I was busy so I'm only posting this now. Better late than never I suppose.

September 28 marked the strongest typhoon ever to have swept and paralyzed the Philippines to date. Heavy torrential rain poured for days and the water rose in just a few minutes, flooding Manila. Some area's, water level rose as high as 2nd story houses in just 12 hours. A lot of lives, livelihood and homes were lost by this devastation.

There's still LOTS to be done and people to help to rebuild their lives. Please help them by donating anything - used clothing, canned foods, water etc. Every little thing adds up.

Thanks for reading.

So true, Hara. Thanks for posting this. I have posted notices on piladyboy in our members area as this has directly affected many of our models, including the beautiful Hershel (and we just shot a huge new set with her just before the typhoon hit). I am happy to say that several members stepped up and made contributions.

Hershel posted about it on her blog: http://asianladyboy.wordpress.com/2009/10/01/please-help-me/

Here's what I posted on piladyboy:

We are first of all concerned for our Filipino friends during this time of crisis and encourage all transpinay fans to contribute if and as they can.

There are many ways to donate to help the 1000s suffering from the flooding in the PI. We have donated to the Philippines Flood Disaster Fund* and encourage our members to do the same, or offer their support through Oxfam, Red Cross or other relief agencies.

That's just sounds wonderful Ecstatic. You always do good deeds for pinay ladyboys..always a good thing in my book. ;)

You know, some area's still don't got electricity and phone lines back. People lost loved one's and businesses, crops from the terrible floodings (pic two from above is near where I used to live and growing up I never remembered floodings in that area. I am thankful though that people I know and relatives back home are doing ok and far away from any harm.

I hope your pinay tgirl friends are all safe.

Hi Ms. Hara,

Long time, no read. Thanx for posting this. Even though your post may be a bit late, such needs are ever present. The world came to our (US) aid during the time of Katrina (From which the City of New Orleans is still struggling to recover) and it is not unreasonable that we should repay that karma in this time of need for the Philippines and her neighbors.

The American Red Cross (And its sister organization in the Middle East, Red Crescent) knows no borders, religion, ethnicity, or politics. All it sees is the plight of those in need during times of disaster. Though I've had some lean times in recent months, I am not so poor that I can ignore these calls for donations. Anyone with a thousand dollar box on their desk and a cable connection has little reason to shirk as well. No amount, however modest, is turned away.

E, thanx for posting Hershel's link. I sent a small donation her way to help with drying out her things and rebuilding her life. That she still had a smile on her face, while standing hip-deep in floodwaters, shows a positive spirit that should be nurtured.

Thanks B1. It sure is nice to read your post again. And like what I've said..better late than never. ;)

Thank you, B1, for sending a donation to Hershel. She is a very special young lady, as that photo shows. Also, she is contributing $1 of every $20 sent directly to her to a general relief fund for her fellow Pinoy victims. Simply amazing. We'll have a brand new set of Hershel's photos on www.piladyboy.com soon. She said the shoot came at a good time because she needed the money.

Please send her our best. If funds pan out here I may send more if I can. I know how nasty things get for me (I am inland, but still have flooding issues from time to time), but I have never had full-out flooding on that magnitude, nor lost as much as those people (And the victims of Katrina) suffered.

This is a good cause. I've been unemployed most of the year, and only able to make a tiny donation, but if anyone has any extra change around, anything you can put is worth the time.
My girlfriend lives in Bataan, and luckily their province wasn't affected badly. But bordering Pampanga got hit hard, and so much of their country is unable to take these things. Lots of destroyed crops, tons of ruined vehicles and homes. Lots of the people affected didn't have much to begin with, and it destroyed what they did have. Again, thanks to anyone for donations, prayers, what have you.
