I am in Manila and we only got signal number 2 yesterday, we are safe and sound with my wife and daughter. However my siblings, families and friends in my hometown Cadiz City and the Vi

Unfortunately, NO original items were sold out, perhaps due to their price :lol: . But some good Samaritans Donated amounts that accumulated to $77.88. Originally, there was a percentage in which 30% of it will go to the rebuilding of my brother's house. However, there is a friend of mine here who wanted to be anonymous (you know who you are, THANK YOU SO MUCH) donated to my brother , though i give some extra amounts to others as well. So, part of $77.8 8 goes to Red Cross and directly to the affected people in my own locality, which is in Cadiz City (Please refer) to the journal stated above for more details on the percentage and amounts. Here are the documents as proof where this amount went to:

As you can see, there are some extra amount that I also contributed.

I purposely not sending all the funds to Red Cross, so that I can directly help the people who are close to me and it was quite fascinating to see them all smile when they received the simple help. It is so positive that it makes me happy too.

As for the rebuilding of my older brother's house, I will be personally "flying" over to my hometown, this coming December 21. This is to ensure that I will be the one to facilitate the rebuilding of my brother's house as well as my uncle. My brother, his 2 children and pregnant live in partner is currently and temporarily take shelter at our parent's house. I will post the  pictures once the reconstruction begin.

I AM REALLY THANKFUL TO ALL THE PEOPLE AND NATIONS WHO HELPED MY COUNTRY, THE PHILIPPINES. God has been so great and you are the proof that God's love was evident. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

I will now momentarily continue my regular schedules. But will get back more unto this when I get the chance.

GODBLESS everyone.
