The city of Cagayan de Oro has been hit by heavy rainfall, just like we have reported earlier, but it wasn’t really into much detail and those simple words do not fit the tragedy that has happened in Cagayan de Oro in the past few days. These pictures (here, here and here) may tell you a bit more about the tragic fate of our fellow brothers and sisters in Mindanao.
While on my way of shutting down the computer, I came across a post of my fellow blogger friend (here) and I really had to lurk deeper into what has happened and how I could help. I may not have sufficient funds to support the feeding program which is spearheaded by Cagayan de Oro`s top notch WordPress Theme Developer Chiq Montes, but I thought that blogging about the feeding program may help somehow, or at least express our concern here at Pinoy Teens in regards to our fellow needy Filipinos.
She is asking for donations of any kind, and the main method to send in donations would be by sending money via Paypal to this address: any amount would do and literally any donation that you can give is much appreciated. For the people living around the Cagayan area, you can refer to Awatiro (here) on methods to send in clothing and other goods aside from money.
The money, like mentioned above will be used to buy food and other important things that the homeless people are in need of right now. But since it is a feeding program, food will be the priority. Hopefully there is someone so kind and good hearted who will send in money and find of other ways to get in touch with the people who are working to help out the ones in need right now in Cagayan de Oro City.
I am reposting this not because I’m after the SEO stuff that a lot of people have been thinking about lately. I wrote this because I feel like giving the least help that I could and that is writing a post (which will also be reposted on my other blogs). If you feel like helping but don’t have any financial amount to give, do a repost about this on your own blog and ask help from your frequent readers. This goes especially to the account of the people in Davao City, bet you also don’t want to be left with empty hands? If you knew about the heavy rainfall that has caused class suspension in Davao today, then I guess you know what to do next.
There has been a total of 68 US Dollar money being raised by people around the world wide web and the plurk community and she, we, everyone involved in the Cagayan de Oro Flood Victims Feeding Program is looking for your help.
I cannot do more but a repost because I have no money right now. Images used within this post are courtesy of the original article by Chiq Montes :p peash!

Hi Iway,
A blog post is just as good as cash, extend your grief to our brothers and sisters in Cagayan by encouraging your readers to show their support.
That’s what we are doing here right now.
Jonathan says
What can I say about this, what happened there at CDO realy is a dramatic problem, especially because there’s no person to blame for it, it’s unfortunate how nature can be so harsh sometimes, but that’s not what’s important right now, unfortunately I too don’t have any extra money at the moment but I’ll include the victims in my prayers.
I hope your blog will attract people who can spare some money for the victims, good move.

Pano nga bah nagkaroon ng ganun kagrabeng pagbaha sa CDO? Come to think of it? It’s not only the nature that we are talking about here. It also includes the creator of our nature, who allows everything to happen. Ano bah nangyari sa CDO before ng nangyari? As far as I know, the parade for the black nazarene(which draws thousands of people in CDO), happened before the flood. Few hours after the parade, in the afternoon specifically, the heavy rain fall, which then cause this tragedy. So ano maiisip nyo? For me, ang event before the flood ay may malaking kinalaman sa trahedyang nangyari.
Let me share to you what’s on my shell, no offense ;)… It is clearly stated in the Bible, which is also one of the ten commandments. “Thou shalt have no other gods before Me”. Meaning people should not worship idols or any graven images or statutes, made by man. Sa tingin ko God just poured his wrath in CDO, where the event happened.
That is based on my understanding about this tragedy. No offense. One advise to you guys reading my post. “Do not mess with GOD!”. The end is near and you’ll never know what will happen. 🙂
Send me your feedbacks about my post… http://mehkyleworks.com

Anu na bang naitulong mo sa bansa mo? Baka sarili mong pamilya di mo matulungan? puro ka yabang at satsat.
someone who cares says
you are no GOD and have no right to even give a single judgement on what caused the problem. Be it that they be obviously or not really evil, you are not GOD to explain the wrath of nature and explain GOD’s part because you are no GOD and you are no better than us. YOUR CONDEMNATION IS NOT WELCOME. IF YOU CANT HELP, SHUT UP

hoy!!!manahimik ka dyan wag ka pabida baka dada ka ng DADa wala ka naman tinulong11fuck urself if uve got nothing to do!!! CDO NEEDS HELP RIGHT NOW NOT YOUR FUCKING OPINION!!!!!SHUT UP!!!
Bunsoi says
Wow naman.
I think Kevin might be disapppointed with this comment of mine.
ok. it’s like this.
I myself is not really that religious. But I still believe ins Jesus Christ and all the other divinities associated with him.
@khem,
I like the way you think. No offense meant for the people who also worship the Black Nazarene, but I guess we have to respect khem’s comment if we are to look on a different perspective. I understand her well. If you are really faithful to your religion, then I guess you should also stick to what your religion tells you to do.
One thing I contradict though is that, I dont think naman GOD is really the one responsible for the flood in CDO. That’s one thing I’ve learned in school. If YOUR GOD will do something to harm you or its people, then what kind of God do you have? A violent GOD? No offense meant ha. I didnt mean to offend anyone.
OT: Naman, religios na tayo dito. jeje.. *peace* 🙂
someone who cares says
thumbs up on your comment@ bunsoi. I’m not the biggest believer but i too know it is unwise to comment it is GOD’s will to have many people perish before his very eyes. and it is inconsiderate to condemn in this trying a time. your (khem)understanding is offending many people and not because you are right but because you are dumb to release a statement under such a sensitive situation, Condemning and blaming people’s act of worship to be the cause of their deaths. let me translate your statement to a shorter “KAMO MAN GUD BA, GABAAN NUON MO”? if this is incorrect, then correct your statement.
