When typhoon Yolanda hit the Philippines in November 2013, Serving & Sharing Foundation Inc. had the opportunity to participate in the great endeavor of Rescue Task Force (RTF) to have sent worth $206,879.36 of relief goods (total value of the container) with our donation of $2,500.00 assisting its shipment to the Philippines. This in-kind donation was in deed a great accomplishment that could truly help our “kababayans” who were badly affected by all the calamities in the Philippines. Mr. Gary Becks, Founder of Rescue Task Force, provided us a report of all the items and goods they sent to the Philippines [please see Testimonial (5 pages)] whereby same report to show our donors so that they know exactly how their donations were actually expended.
