Typhoon Ondoy (Ketsana) was one of the worst natural disasters to hit the Metro Manila area and
the nearby regions of NCR (National Capital Region) in recent times. And now, more than ever, we must all come together to help save as many as we can from this catastrophe. Let us help Ondoy victims through Gawad Kalinga
foundation.
