The United States government, through the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAid), has provided nearly P13 million to communities affected by the ongoing eruption of Mayon Volcano in Albay province, including more than P11 million in immediate humanitarian assistance and P1.86 million worth of education materials.

USAid is partnering with the International Organization for Migration (IOM) to provide clean water, essential hygiene items, and emergency shelter to over 2,500 individuals in evacuation centers in the municipalities of Camalig, Guinobatan, Libon, Malilipot, and Santo Domingo. USAid and IOM will also help the local communities in managing evacuation centers and repairing critical water and sanitation infrastructure.
