Super Typhoon Haiyan Slams Philippines; Heifer Mobilizing Teams to Aid Those Affected | Heifer International | Charity Ending Hunger And Poverty

Super Typhoon Haiyan Slams Philippines; Heifer Mobilizing Teams to Aid Those Affected | Heifer International | Charity Ending Hunger And Poverty: UPDATE (SUNDAY 1 p.m.) Heifer has successfully contacted all our central Philippines staff in the wake of super typhoon Haiyan, and they are all OK, however it is becoming clearer that our project areas were devastated by the force of the storm.

Heifer now knows that virtually all of our farming families in the direct line of the typhoon—about 4,000 people—will need immediate assistance. We will supplement the efforts of government and relief agencies with food, water and roofing materials to help meet basic shelter needs.
