Description
september 26, 2009, the tropical storm Ondoy (international name "Ketsana") struck here in the philippines.possessions and homes and lives were lost. hundred thousands stranded. floods were up to the roofs. one city was nearly 100% submerged.
the floods kept me stranded in a studio for about 5 hours with no food. worse yet, my older brother was stranded in a faraway mall for 30 hours, with the floods up to the second floor, ankle deep. it took a boat to bring him home.
what's important now is to help out and donate to the victims of the flood who have lost everything. thanks all.

Hey! My name is Lorra and I started a group for artists to share their visions of hope, creation and rebuilding to benefit the survivors of Ondoy.
It's called START HERE and I was wondering if you wanted to submit something. We hope to have an exhibit/to sell off the artwork to raise the money to donate and use for various improvement projects and to develop calamity risk management programs in the country.
For more info, you can head on to [link]
We also have a Facebook group that you can join: [link]
