A big thank you!

Thanks to all our wonderful volunteers who helped out with street collections around the Island for the DEC Philippines Typhoon Appeal – and to everyone who donated so generously. Special thanks to the members of the Filipino Association of the Isle of Man who were able to join us at such a difficult time.  All funds raised will go to the DEC – you can get updates on the aid they are providing at http://www.dec.org.uk/.  The UN is estimating about 11 million people have been affected by the typhoon and long term help will be required to rebuild lives and communities.  More aid is vital – for ideas on holding your own fund-raising event go to http://www.dec.org.uk/how-to-help/fundraise-us
