Manila archdiocese parishes to conduct second collection for flood victims this weekend
Caritas Manila, the social arm of the Archdiocese of Manila, has launched a donation drive to assist victims of widespread flooding in Metro Manila and nearby areas.
Manila Archbishop Cardinal Jose Advincula has called on all 90 parishes and mission stations in the archdiocese to conduct a second collection during weekend masses on July 27-28 to support flood victims.
The Archdiocese of Manila covers parishes in Manila, Pasay, Makati, Mandaluyong, and San Juan.
Typhoon Carina and the Southwest Monsoon induced "habagat" that caused torrential rains, leaving at least 22 people dead and displacing over 600,000 individuals, according to the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council.
The typhoon and monsoon have disrupted livelihoods, homes, and transportation across the country.
The cardinal expressed his prayers and solidarity with those affected and gratitude to institutions offering aid.
