I just had the pleasure of meeting our neighbor Pastor Joel. We spoke about his charity projects, feeding children and his volunteering attempts at restoring Ormoc after Typhoon Yolanda. Initially after the typhoon he found it easier to get funding which mainly came from Tacloban based charities. Now as time has passed and Tacloban is somewhat restored, Ormoc is experiencing difficulties in achieving the same results.

Pastor Joel's work is also including a childrens community friendly center at a potential site nearby where we are building one. He does not yet have funding and although we cannot promise anything, we will visit the site and try to help him by redesigning the center we currently work to fit his site. Perhaps with a developed proposal in place fundraising might be easier. Perhaps something can be built. In the meantime Pastor Joel will pray and we will draw.
