At least 10 000 people are likely dead after strongest typhoon since tsunami in 2004 hit the Phillippines.
Here is a list of organizations which are offering aid for survivors:
Typhoon victims: how you can help
If you want to donate goods remember that what is needed primarily is:
- clean bottled drinking non sparkling water - sanitary conditions will be very bad for long time from now on - water sources are polluted with debris and chemicals
- batteries - normally plenty of electric network is destroyed - batteries will be needed for at least a month in such a case
- canned food with long term usage - this is usually provided by international organizations, but if your local charity collects food - make sure it's long lasting
- UHT milk - it lasts good even with no access to the fridge
Cloths are usually of less need in such disasters, but everything is needed. However remember of the things above because people often donate excessive blankets or cloths but water is missing.
My condolences to the families of survivors.
