Dear Bloggery

Barrio Siete, an alternative collective blog by a group of Filipino bloggers from different parts of the world is reaching out to the netizens for the victims of Typhoon Ondoy (International Name: Typhoon Ketsana).

The collective blog spearheaded by the La Kapitana has organized a fund raising called Barrio Bayanihan for the victims. Please do visit the site and check out the ongoing fund drive by reading the blog entry:  Barrio Bayanihan for Ondoy Victims.

Here is the excerpt of La Kapitana’s campaign:

In the spirit of Barrio Siete, we invite you all to join our Bayanihan Fund Drive: Donate to Ondoy Flood Victims. Very simply:

1.) Make a donation to our Bayanihan Fund Drive: Donate to Ondoy Flood Victims. If you can’t, then help us by making this viral and create an entry entitled: Bayanihan Fund Drive: Donate to Ondoy Flood Victims. A link to this original entry will be appreciated where your readers can make a donation. Please leave us a note in the comment section if you are joining so we can list your entry, in case the pingback doesn’t work.

2.) Invite other bloggers to join our Bayanihan Fund Drive: Donate to Ondoy Flood Victims.

3.) We will list the names of the donors in a worksheet, their organization and/or their websites, unless they prefer to be anonymous.

4.) The listing will be updated regularly and will be posted here in Barrio Siete Dot com.

5.) We are only accepting monetary donations in currencies accepted by Paypal.

6.) All donations will be remitted only to the Philippine National Red Cross in Manila. (We have not made any contact with them yet.)

7.) If you prefer: You can make donations directly to the Philippine National Red Cross. Here is the link: Ways to donate

In Barrio Siete, this is where you can make your donation. We will in turn, turn this over to the Philippine National Red Cross.

8.) Reyna Elenas entry on Ondoy here is getting a lot of messages from readers asking for help and assistance. If you are reading this, please head over to that entry and respond to some of the questions if you know because it kills me that I don’t know the answer to their questions or their plea for help. Hopefully, there is one here who could help.

As of this writing, thousands of family are still homeless and many people, most specially children are hungry. Many are also reportedly sick in the Philippines.

Please help the Filipinos affected by the typhoon by putting a badge or making a small donation here or if you would be so kind, please help us to spread the word by blogging about this fund drive.

Thank you so much.

Regards,
