THE GREEN BAGS REACH A HEAVILY DAMAGED AREA BY THE ERUPTION OF THE PINABUTO VOLCANO

On July 31^st 2016, JoyJ volunteers provided food to the homeless families in Sta Barbara Iba Zambales.  Santa Barbara is a first class municipality in the province of Pangasinan, Philippines. A lot of families in Zimbales province were extensively damaged by the eruption of the Pinatubo volcano.  This is one of the poorest areas in Philippines.  Sta. Barbara is populated mainly by Pangasinense natives and a few other ethnic groups.

Twenty-six volunteers—a lot young and family with children—distributed sixty-five bags and spent time to comfort and help people in a very difficult situation.

A big THANK YOU to the organizers and the volunteers for their compassion and dedication to to the cause of the poorest and the forgotten among us.
