NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- The Philippines was hit hard by Typhoon Ketsana this past weekend. The estimated death toll is at 345 and climbing as rescue crews continue the vigorous relief effort. Ketsana dumped record-high rain that submerged 80 percent of the capital region of Manila and nearby areas, producing the worst flooding in 40 years, leaving more than 500,000 displaced.

The massive flooding has triggered colossal food, water, medical supply, fuel and other relief shortages . Unfortunately the worst has yet to come; as weather reports are projecting two more tropical storms are gathering strength and heading towards the Philippines.

Typhoon Parma is gaining strength and is likely to turn into a category 5 "Super Typhoon" when it reaches the Philippines today with more ahead until at least Sunday with expected 200 kph (124.3 mph) winds and heavy rain. Because of the tragic turn of events, The Eugene Amano Family along with Gawad Kalinga , a Philippine based poverty reduction and nation building movement have teamed up to help those in need in the Philippines.

The Amano Family has started accepting donations and if you would like to assist, please visit Eugene Amano's website at www.eugeneamano.com for more information.
