Lahat Dapat Safe ~ Save the Children Provides Urgent Relief After Typhoons
November 21, 2024In the wake of Typhoons Julian, Kristine, Leon, Marce, and Nica, Save the Children Philippines has launched the #LahatDapatSafe campaign to protect over one million children at risk. These storms have displaced families, disrupted education, and heightened disease risks.
"I’m afraid to sleep because the wind is so strong. The rain reminds me of the night we lost everything," shared twelve year-old Mica, a survivor of the recent Typhoon Julian.
Children like her face heightened risks of hunger, trauma, and developmental delays due to the typhoons' devastation. Save the Children’s #LahatDapatSafe campaign aims to protect and support affected kids by providing food, hygiene kits, educational supplies, and emotional aid to families in hard-hit areas like Camarines Sur, Batangas, and Calabarzon.
The #LahatDapatSafe campaign has mobilized relief efforts with support from partners like Lifestrong Marketing Inc. and FWD. On the ground, The Miss Philippines and Mister Pilipinas Worldwide have been packing hygiene kits and household supplies for families in the hardest-hit areas.
“A child’s safety and well-being should never be at risk, especially during crises,” said Atty. Alberto Muyot, CEO of Save the Children Philippines. “The #LahatDapatSafe campaign ensures children receive immediate relief and long-term support to recover and thrive. With our partners, we are committed to helping families rebuild their lives.”
