Let's Help the Victims of Typhoon Sendong

What happened to Cagayan de Oro is devastating and heart-breaking. We've seen many photos of the typhoon victims circulating the social networking sites and the daily news. Hubby and I shed tears when we saw this photo, I'm sure many others - parents or not - cried as well.

I cannot imagine the amount of grief the families who lost their love ones are feeling. I don't know how they will move on from a tragedy such as this. What makes it even more heart-wrenching is that in a few days it will be Christmas Day. It is supposed to be a happy season. But, how can we celebrate if many of our fellow Filipinos lost their families to the flood?

Maybe we can lessen their burden even for a little bit by sending help. Here are some ways:
