Emergency Appeal

Türkiye-Syria Earthquake

The Türkiye and Syria earthquake could affect an estimate of 23 Million according to the World Health Organization.

As the whole humanitarian community mourns the thousands of lives lost after the deadly earthquake, members of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement join arms to ensure that as many survivors as possible have access to the help that they need.

The harsh winter of February, the coldest month in Türkiye, and massive destruction of infrastructures have increased the vulnerability of survivors and responders alike to countless risks. The Philippine Red Cross has donated US$100,000 each to Türkiye and Syria, along with blankets and thick sleeping bags as warm shelter and sustenance are some of the highest priorities. But the immense need for these simple necessities would require more.

We are gathering donations to help send generators and heaters to these earthquake-devastated nations. Help us warm the tents and shelters of survivors. Help us warm the hands of our responders as they deliver much-needed humanitarian services to those affected.

LET’S SEND WARMTH TO TÜRKIYE AND SYRIA

Saliva RT-PCR Test

PRC chairman Senator Richard Gordon said if given the green light, the new testing method can be a game-changer in Covid-19 testing.

“It’s a game-changer. Dati hirap na hirap tayo pag tayo ay nagpapa-swab. Susundutin yung ilong, yung throat natin. Ngayon this is less invasive, napaka convenient (Before it is very difficult to undergo swab test, they will collect a sample from our nose and throat. Now this is less invasive, more convenient),” Gordon said as he led the event at the PRC Logistics and Multi-Purpose Center in Mandaluyong City .
