Philippines LIFESAVER Clean Water Project


In December, flash floods hit the coastal areas of the Philippines with the ports of Iligan and nearby Cagayan de Oro bearing the brunt of this flooding. Philippine President Benigno Aquino has since declared a state of national calamity.

With the death toll numbered at over 1000 and many more missing, the key supplies needed are water and sanitation. Unicef’s Angela Travis says that “80% of the water supply is out in Cagayan de Oro” highlighting the ever-pressing need for water and sanitation supplies with children being most at risk from disease and dehydration.

Several truckloads of aid including bottled water have already been transported into Iligan and Cagayan de Oro and other affected areas. Water sources still intact, face contamination due to the amount of decomposing detritus in the flood water. The health authories are concerned about a health epidemic developing unless adequate help is given.  

Donate to LIFESAVER and give Philippines’ flood victims access to clean disease-free drinking water. Work with LIFESAVER to end water poverty!
