Sanggunian has let loose the announcement that Classes for Ateneo are OFFICIALLY SUSPENDED for Monday and Tuesday. Source is our good friend ChawChaw who came from school.
Now, to the business of getting some help out:
We're trying to assemble as much goods as possible to help the people out from typhoon Ondoy (and likely, the typhoon that will soon follow in a couple of days - or so I heard).
Primarily, what will be needed are FOOD and MEDICINES. BLANKETS would be nice to have as well.
The goal is to get as much of these as possible on the doorstop of the MVP Building in Ateneo de Manila University by TUESDAY.
Consequently, our response now will be two-fold:
1. Firstly, we're going to need alot these materials. If you can find it in your family's hearts (and cupboards/bodegas/wherever you keep your stuff), please do so. If your family's hearts (cupboards and bodegas included) are consequently empty or NEEDED BY YOUR FAMILY (obv, we dont want you to give up your last potato chip), then perhaps you can help us out by donating some FUNDS for the relief.
2. Secondly, we're going to need people to move these materials. So some system to drive around and grab all the donated stuff, or perhaps collection areas for moving are in order.
Please, please please, if you have the following resources, and your parents can help us in this we would absolutely appreciate this, help us find a way.
If you're frustrated that you're stuck,
If you're pissed because you aren't allowed to get out of your house,
If you feel that you are needed, right here and right now,
This is the chance.
Please meet us at http://tinychat.com/unite by 9PM, TODAY.
Let's all work out all the details, and help as many as we can, as much as we can.
Thank you very much for your kind attention. Enjoy the next few class-less days!
Special thanks to Ryan - you made all of this happen.
