We've all seen what the 7.2 magnitude earthquake did to the province of Bohol last Tuesday. I find the news reports heartbreaking especially when they involve children who have lost family members and their homes. While we can't all go to Bohol to physically help the victims, here's a way to still send aid and help rebuild homes.

As I've been advocating for years, it is always great to help but we should do so by coursing our resources to trustworthy organizations with good track records of delivering on their promises.
Today, Habitat for Humanity Philippines' HAMER on Wheels will start rebuilding affected houses in Balilihan, Bohol and they need construction materials such as roof, plywood, hollow blocks and cement; equipment and tools like hatchet, hammer, saw, scraper; and power tools like electric drill, power saw, steel cut off saw, chain saw and more.
