Disaster Relief Team Forming for the Philippines
On November 30, 2006, the coast of the Philippines was hit by Typhoon Durian resulting in as many as 1,000 individuals presumed dead in it's aftermath. The Scientology International Volunteer Ministers Coordinator has put out an immediate call for volunteers and donations to help with the disaster relief effort. This disaster has set off landslides and floods which are responsible for most of the deaths and destruction. The country’s president has declared a state of national calamity. The rescue operations have been hampered by bad weather conditions and in many cases emergency response personnel have been unable to use motor vehicles to reach victims in the outlying areas and are instead having to reach them by foot with the supplies and assistance they desperately need.
