2013 – Typhoon Haiyan in Philippines

The PRASAD Project collected funds to provide disaster relief to victims of Typhoon Haiyan, which struck the Philippines in 2013.

The hardest hit was Leyte Province, where floods and 170+ mile-per-hour winds destroyed the capitol city of Tacloban, home to 220,000 people.  The death toll exceeded 10,000.  Funds collected by The PRASAD Project were sent to AmeriCares, our partner in this effort, to deliver medical relief and recovery aid.
