When Super Typhoon Odette barreled its way through the CARAGA Region, among the most vulnerable were small islands that were fully exposed to the wind and storm surge. The damage to property and infrastructure was catastrophic.

Tanging Yaman Foundation is working with the Diocese of Surigao Social Action Center Justice and Peace (DSAC) to provide 39 fishing boats to families whose livelihood revolves around fishing. The DSAC has identified three families in each of 13 island-barangays of Surigao City where they have a chapel. So far, ten motorized fishing boats have been distributed to families in San Juan Bautista Chapel in Brgy Alegria, Our Lady of Fatima Chapel in Brgy Baybay, San Antonio de Padua Chapel in Brgy Buenavista, and Sto Niño Chapel in Brgy Libuac. More fishing boats are being constructed.

TYF’s donation amounts to P1,950,000.

Housing Rehab in Nocnocan Island, Bohol

Written by Administrator

Poverty has forced many Filipinos to live in precarious conditions.

In Nocnocan Island, Talibon, Bohol, Pedro Mendez and dozens of other families have a foreshore lease agreement with DENR that allows them to set up houses at the edge of the shoreline. They have to build on stilts because they have no land.

Pedro's house was completely damaged during Super Typhoon Odette, leaving only the cement pillars. Last week, a team from the Blessed Trinity Cathedral Parish rebuilt the house of Pedro, who is coordinator of the chapel in the island.

Tanging Yaman Foundation sponsored the construction, one of 37 houses in the Diocese of Talibon, through its Odette rehabilitation funds. The parish also gathered additional donations for kitchenware and food during the house blessing on March 25.

We are grateful to Fr Doms Amoncio who coordinates the TYF-funded shelter and livelihood projects in the diocese, and who travelled to Nocnocan for the house blessing.
