Miss Universe 2015 Pia Wurtzbach is appealing to her 11.5 million Instagram followers to help the victims of typhoons in several parts of the country.
Pia made the appeal as she headed to Manila following weeks of vacation in London. Her full post on Instagram Nov. 14:
"Our partner fishing communities in Albay and Camarines Sur need your help! Still reeling from the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, they have been recently battered by Super Typhoon Rolly, destroying the boats that they use for livelihood and leaving hundreds without shelter.
"Donate NOW and provide them with food, water, building materials, solar lamps, and hygiene kits! bit.ly/projectsilong - this link is also in my bio for easier access.
"The fishing communities of Lagonoy Gulf have been @wwfphilippines close partners in pushing for sustainable fishing practices since 2011. Our site team acted swiftly to assess our affected fishing communities and determine their immediate needs.
"Through Project Silong, help us #ChangeTheEnding for our food producers as we #BuildBackBetter communities that are more sustainable and resilient to face the climate crisis. @wwfphilippines
