Meanwhile, the Department of Social Welfare and Development is calling for more volunteers to help in packaging goods and relief items for the afternoon and evening at the National Relief Operations Center in Pasay.

Many of our countrymen have already given their assistance in packaging relief goods; however, the Department has observed that more volunteers are needed in the latter part of the day to ensure the constant delivery of relief goods. The critical hours for packaging said goods are from 6 to 8 P.M.
Volunteers are asked to coordinate with the DSWD with regard to the schedule and locations of relief operations, as well as to call on other groups and individuals who are interested in assisting. The government encourages concerned citizens and groups to come together under the spirit of cooperation and bayanihan, and help our countrymen recover.
