Hello Fellow Digarians,

Zamboanga City had biggest fire tragedy last March 23, 2006. Please see and visit Click to Open Web Page

Rotarians and Rotaractors have mobilized to help out the affected victims by volunteering and giving supplies for food, medicines and sanitation. However, we are still connecting through friends and network for small assistance that they can give for the people as resources are not enough.

Ateneo de Zamboanga University where I work is the biggest shelter at the moment. All our graduation activities were postponed to house some 1,200+ evacuees. It is also the nearest housing site. Plans are being worked out for relocation.

I am inviting our generous digarians to help out. A dollar stretches a long way for ZamboangueƱos. Help can be deposited through the following account:

Rotary Club of Zamboanga City East PNB Climaco Branch Peso Account A/C #514-830067-6 Ateneo de Zamboanga University Bank of the Philippine Island (BPI) Climaco Branch, Dollar account #2114-0103-51 Peso account #2111-0001-42.

Copy of deposit slips can be emailed to me at bellomauf@central.adzu.edu.ph

"Muchisimas Gracias con todos y Vaya Con Dios"
