Why?
Typhoon Mangkhut makes landfall in Bagao, Cagayan. It caused heavy rains which prompt floods and landslides. This Emergency Appeal seeks 2.7 million Swiss francs (CHF) to enable the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) to support the Philippine Red Cross (PRC) to deliver assistance and support to 100,000 people, who were affected by Typhoon Mangkhut, for 12 months. The operation will focus on the following sectors: health (including psychosocial support and nutrition); water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH); livelihoods (including cash-transfer); shelter (including distribution of non-food items); disaster risk reduction; protection, gender and inclusion (PGI); migration; and National Society capacity enhancement.
