Donate cash today, to help our health frontliners fight COVID-19 and to provide food, shelter, and hygiene items for communities in need.
Ateneo Disaster Response and Management (DReaM) Team has partnered with Tanging Yaman Foundation and Simbahang Lingkod ng Bayan to pool together resources and efforts to fight the ongoing COVID-19 crisis.
Our three main programs aim to:
Provide personal protective equipment (PPE) like nitrile gloves, N95 face masks, hazmat suits, and alcohol for health workers on the frontlines
Deliver packed meals for hospital personnel in crisis areas
Give packed food and hygiene items for families in need
To date, we have helped over a dozen hospitals and partner communities in Marikina, Quezon City, Rizal, and other areas in need.
We urgently need your support, mainly in terms of cash donations, as we aim to be able to provide for the needs of our partner hospitals and communities for at least one month.
The Ateneo Disaster Response and Management (DReaM) Team, composed of offices and volunteers from various Ateneo units, has served as the main engine for Ateneo de Manila University disaster relief and rehabilitation work since typhoon Ondoy in 2009.
