Aid for Ondoy's Victims

Aid for Ondoy’s Victims

Globe and Smart subscribers can now reach out to the thousands victimized by Ondoy’s rampage across Luzon’s major population centers by availing of their venture with the Philippine National Red Cross. The process is simple and so convenient because it only involves keying some characters on your mobile. Just type RED (amount Globe (2899)/Smart(4483). Example: RED 100 and send to 4483 for Smart or RED 100 and send to 2289 for Globe.

Since I use Globe’s services, I know that the lowest amount that can be donated is PhP5.00 and the highest is PhP300.00. For the price of 5 inane text jokes, one can help some sick or hungry child out there. Or if one is a designer cappuccino, frap, or cafe latte junkie, donating one’ daily caffeine allowance to all those needy people and going without expensive coffee just for one day won’t probably ruin his stature in society.

Think of it as our way of thanking the heavens that Ondoy left us with life, limb, family, and hearth intact.
