On Friday, November 10, 2013, Typhoon Haiyan slammed into the southern Philippines. This typhoon is being called the “most powerful storm in history” and packed maximum sustained winds of 315 kph. It has caused catastrophic destruction, injury and loss of life.
Our thoughts go out to the people of the Philippines, the Filipino-Canadian community and especially to our many Filipino friends and co-workers here in Vancouver.
At this time the full extent of the tragedy has yet to be determined, but what we do know is how we can reach out and send some help:
