On March 2, a devastating fire tore through Sitio Naba, Barangay Mambaling, Cebu City, destroying over 100 homes and displacing approximately 500 people, including many from the Badjao community. Families have lost everything and are in urgent need of shelter, food, clothing, and essential supplies.
SERVE is launching an Emergency Relief Appeal to provide immediate assistance to those affected. We are partnering with the Presentation Sisters and the Nano Nagle team in Cebu, who are on the ground providing direct support to displaced families. With their deep-rooted connection to the Badjao community, they are ensuring that aid reaches those who need it most.
We have responded to emergency situations with the Nano Nagle team before, including COVID-19 relief, and we are committed to standing in solidarity once again during this crisis.
