			Christian Children’s Fund of Canada asks Canadians  to support emergency relief for the Philippines		

Please Help The People of the Philippines!

MARKHAM, ON (November 13, 2013) – In response to Typhoon Haiyan – one of the most devastating typhoons ever to hit land in the Philippines – Christian Children’s Fund of Canada is asking Canadians for help. 
“On November 8th, Typhoon Haiyan caused widespread damage in the area of Leyte province. An estimated 10,000 people died. More than 600,000 were displaced from their homes. Millions more are affected. We are appealing to the generosity of Canadians to join the international relief effort to support the Philippines. Please, give what you can,” said Mark Lukowski, Chief Executive Officer, Christian Children’s Fund of Canada (CCFC).
CCFC, a registered Canadian charity, is urging Canadians to visit www.ccfcanada.ca to donate. Ottawa will match every dollar donated by Canadians through the Typhoon Haiyan Relief Fund. This fund was announced by federal Minister of International Development, Christian Paradis this past weekend. 

Felicitas Adrian, Vice President, Fund Development and Communications, CCFC, said, “Our alliance partner,  ChildFund International, is currently on the ground assessing the unprecedented damage and impact from Typhoon Haiyan. It is challenging because of the communications outage in many of the hardest hit areas, but we know there is great need for assistance and we are doing everything we can to support the emergency relief efforts. Through the Typhoon Haiyan Relief Fund, Canadians can donate until December 23rd.”
Christian Children’s Fund of Canada is a member of ChildFund Alliance, a worldwide group of 12 child-focused development organizations working in 58 countries to implement long-lasting and meaningful changes for children and families. For more than 50 years, CCFC has been helping children and families of all faiths move from poverty to self-reliance.
