Caritas Manila will be sending financial assistance to the following Dioceses: Diocese of Caceres, Diocese of Daet, Diocese of Gumaca, Diocese of Legazpi and Diocese of Virac,\u201d it said.<\/p>\n

Aside from sending cash donations directly, Caritas Manila would also use these to buy relief items such as manna food bags, shelter materials, clean water, bedding materials, hygiene items. These would then be sent to the victims of the typhoon.<\/p>\n
