PRC volunteers deliver aid to earthquake-hit communities

IN line with the Philippine Red Cross' (PRC) objective to reach the most vulnerable, PRC volunteers and staff crossed two rivers and trekked through a mountain to bring aid to earthquake-hit Barangay Sabnangan and Sito Pega in Luba town, Abra over the weekend.

One hundred ninety-one families each received one hygiene kit containing 12 body soap bars, five laundry soap bars, 40 pieces sanitary napkin, three pieces 70 cm x 30 cm bath towels, two pieces 130 cm x 60 cm bath towels, six rolls toilet paper, two tubes of toothpaste, five toothbrushes and four razors. It is estimated that these non-food items will be good for five persons in one month.
