365 students of Eastern Star Academy in San Mateo, Rizal, Philippines lost everything in the flood. Typhoon Ondoy (international codename: Ketsana) took their books, notebooks and school items. The flood has subsided and the students will resume school on Monday, October 12. The question of the students is: “How do we go back to school with nothing?”
Yes, they can share books for the meantime.
No, they can not share a notebook with their classmate.
But you can share a notebook with them, WILL YOU?
For only P 120.00 of US$ 2.60, you can give one student the notebooks and writing pads that the flood has rendered useless. We need to raise P 45,000 or US$ 962.00 to help all 365 children. Will you share a notebook?
