Dear John,

CMMB staff prepare shipments of medical supplies for Philippine relief.
Thanks to our loyal donors, response to the immense need in the wake of Typhoon Haiyan has been remarkable. The outpouring of support is truly inspiring. But we still need your help. CMMB is continuing to work around the clock to help save lives in the Philippines. Our first shipments of essential meds, gloves, masks and hygiene kits 12 pallets, valued at over $2 million were shipped earlier this week. We are also preparing additional shipments of medicines at the request of the Philippine Consul General for airlift.

Our in-country partners are requesting even more by the day. There is still so much work to be done.
It’s difficult to see such heartbreaking images and pleas for help by the millions of people affected. Our brothers and sisters in the Philippines desperately need our help. We need YOUR help to respond to this crisis and others around the world. Please continue to pray for the children and families impacted by this devastating typhoon. Any gift you give today will be a blessing to our brothers and sisters.
Sincerely,
