Ways to help out Marawi survivors:If within the PhilippinesDonate supplies or money. Things like Ready-to-eat, canned goods (halal)Hijab fully-covered clothesBlanketsToiletries, sanitary napkinsMedicine, first-aid kidsMany of the evacuees are Muslim, so make sure foodstuffs are halal, allowable to their faith. Explanation here by Islamic Da’wah Council of the Philippines.Locally produced is better for reasons discussed below.If outside the Philippines:If possible, donate money. Find an organization that will accept money. Sending goods not made and sold in the Philippines may hurt the economy of the region even more.If you can’t confirm the legitimacy of any organization’s efforts and wish to send physical goods, consider buying things made and sold from the Philippines, especially from Mindanao. Social Products sells Mindanao black rice, for example. As always do your due diligence by researching the organizations you wish to donate to, so that you know that donations will actually go to the people who need help.Relevant links:http://www.rappler.com/move-ph/170756-groups-call-donations-relief-operations-marawihttp://www.scoutmag.ph/section/culture/news/help-affected-fighting-marawi/ -- source link
