Dear Rich, (( PLEASE DONATE )) The International Rescue Committee has dispatched an emergency response team to the Philippines in the wake of a devastating natural disaster. Typhoon Haiyan, the super storm that struck Saturday, washed away entire communities, turned buildings to rubble and destroyed roads and bridges. Some 9.5 million people have been affected. Right now, IRC experts are on the ground, preparing to deliver safe drinking water, sanitation, food, shelter and other essential aid. And we will remain as long as we are needed to help local communities recover from this catastrophe. We need your help. Donate now and support our work on behalf of people uprooted by natural disaster, war and other crises in more than 40 countries. Even as we address this sudden emergency in the Philippines, we are ramping up our response to the ongoing humanitarian crisis affecting millions of displaced Syrians and maintaining our recovery efforts in Pakistan, Haiti and other disaster-stricken countries. Please donate today. With your support, we can continue to respond quickly and effectively when emergencies strike and help vulnerable people around the world to survive and rebuild their lives. On behalf of those suffering in the Philippines and around the world, thank you for your urgent action. Sincerely, David Miliband President and CEO International Rescue Committee
