RedDoorz, the Philippines’ leading hotel management and booking platform, reached out to the Philippine Red Cross and World Vision to provide assistance to the thousands of residents affected by the recent Taal Volcano eruption.
RedDoorz supported Philippine Red Cross, the premier humanitarian organization in the country that is committed on various social welfare services and promoting volunteerism, by donating thousands of blankets, bottled water and hygiene kits containing soap, shampoo, and dental kits, some of the most essential items needed by evacuees who were left homeless by the volcanic eruption. The Philippine Red Cross was among the first responders on-ground to help the thousands of affected residents in Batangas province.
“We are happy to have RedDoorz join this cause and take part in our relief operations for the affected families. We need all the help we can get to help families in the affected areas. There are still a lot of things to be done,” said Philippine Red Cross chairman Sen. Richard Gordon.
RedDoorz also extended their help to World Vision, a global humanitarian organization which aims to improve lives of families and communities, and gave monetary assistance for its on-going relief operations for people gravely affected by the Taal Volcano eruption. World Vision, known for caring for underprivileged children, started a monetary donation drive to provide evacuees with hygiene kits, dust masks, drinking water, and to build child-friendly spaces to help children cope with the distress of the calamity.
As for the largest non-profit organization in the Philippines, World Vision Executive Director Rommel Forte said, “World Vision is committed to support the families, especially the children, who are in a difficult situation because of the eruption. Our response team is already on the ground and will also be distributing hygiene kits, plastic mats, blankets, drinking water and other emergency essentials in the coming days.”
“Our properties in Tagaytay have been badly affected and the communities we serve there have been badly affected as well. We partnered with Red Cross and World Vision in their relief operations so we can extend help not just to our Tagaytay communities but to the residents and evacuees of the affected towns. In times like these when so many people have lost their homes, belongings and livelihoods, and have to deal with hunger and exposure to the elements, we need to come together as one community to help those in need.” said RedDoorz’s Country Marketing Head, Raenald De Jesus.
Residents of cities and municipalities near the main crater of Taal Volcano were forced to leave their homes due to the volcanic activities and the threat of more explosions. More than 50,000 residents of towns from Batangas and Cavite had been staying in evacuation centers since Sunday, January 12.
