EU pledges P60-M aid to ‘Ulysses’-affected families
The European Union (EU) has committed an additional 1.05 million euros (approximately PHP60 million) in humanitarian aid to assist victims of Typhoon Ulysses.
This new donation brings the EU's total contribution to the Philippines' typhoon response to PHP134 million, following a previous PHP74.5 million donation for Super Typhoon Rolly.
The fresh funding will be channeled through humanitarian aid partners already present on the ground to address the immediate needs of the most vulnerable populations.
Assistance provided will include essential items such as shelter, food, healthcare, and access to clean water, sanitation, and hygiene facilities.
This latest support is part of the EU's ALERT mechanism, designed to address major natural disasters impacting significant portions of the population.
