[Fabilioh! Dec 2022] Learning and Growing from the Pandemic
16 Dec 2022
The day after typhoon Paeng hit parts of the country in November 2022, Tanging Yaman Foundation (TYF) was already prepared to respond.
With a prepositioned 1,000 food packs – always on the ready in case anything happens – and additional orders for relief goods on the way, TYF was able to immediately dispatch much-needed supplies to flood-hit areas.
It’s part of a routine that TYF has already done countless times, and just one of the numerous projects that the Foundation has been doing for years now since it was formally organized in 1995, said Fr Manoling Francisco SJ, TYF founder and chair.
The Foundation has been involved in relief and rehabilitation work in disaster-stricken areas, assisting impoverished communities, scholarships and livelihood programs.
