"Kapit Filipinas - Wishes From Singapore" which means "Hang On Philippines - Wishes from Singapore" is an initiative by ClubSNAP, together with some Filipinos photography groups to do fund raising for the victims of Typhoon Haiyan. The funds raised will be given to Mercy Relief disaster efforts in the affected areas.

Over the 2 weekends after next, we will be taking photos with instant prints at 2 locations and soliciting donations at Orchard Rd area. The photos will uploaded onto (tba).

The details of the locations will be as follows

a. 23 Nov - 24 Nov, 10am - 5pm @ Far East Plaza (location here: http://www.streetdirectory.com/sg/far-east-plaza/14-scotts-road-228213/2695_21212.html)

We need volunteers for the following


1. Members to take photos (thats the easy part)
2. Able to approach strangers to take photos and collect donation in the donation tins (this need thick skin and ability to connect with strangers - not easy but most fulfilling)

4. Operate printing station.

My uncle Gerry lives in Tacloban, Philippines and survived Category 5 Supertyphoon Yolanda/Haiyan. He chose to stay to clean up and rebuild.

These photos were taken by him early today, Tuesday, November 19, 2013.
