At around 11 o'clock in the evening last Friday, Typhoon Sendong (international name: Washi) struck Mindanao (Southern Philippines) that led to flash floods and landslides that destroyed properties and killed hundreds of people. The cities of Cagayan de Oro (CDO) and Iligan suffered mostly from the typhoon and are now in need of our help.
I had a hard time creating this nail art. Painting letters on my small nails was a challenge. I know this hardship is nothing compared to the distress of the victims of Typhoon Sendong. I'll be wearing this nail art for a few days and hopefully many might notice and be encouraged to help. Let's extend a helping hand as we celebrate the season of giving.
This nail design was inspired by these logos created by the CDO and Iligan bloggers as part of their campaign to gather donations for the victims of the typhoon:
Here are a few photos of the aftermath:

Thank you very much for this great information. Let’s pray for the people who were victims by this tragedy. This is an unexpected happening; there are many people who are victims of this tragedy. We hope and pray that they cannot happen again. God be with us all.
ReplyDeleteNice post. Thanks for sharing. I hope that preventative measures can be put in place soon. One thing that can be done which costs nothing is each individual take responsibility for their garbage and put it where it belongs instead of throwing it all over the streets, rivers, and everywhere else.
