CA-3-D000720001 2026-06-07T06:33:05 May 2014 - On November 8, 2013, Typhoon Haiyan (locally known as Yolanda) made landfall in the Philippines, a densely populated country of 92 million people. The category five typhoon killed over 6,000 Filipinos, caused 4 million people to be displaced from their homes, and caused severe damage to infrastructure, including homes, roads, schools and health centres. Although many people have already received life-saving humanitarian assistance, significant humanitarian needs remain, including early recovery activities that contribute to building communities that are more resilient. With DFATD’s support, Humanity First Canada is helping up to 6,250 people affected by Typhoon Haiyan in Capiz and Iloilo provinces by providing shelter and education assistance. Project activities include: (1) repairing or building up to 284 houses; and (2) rehabilitating four schools and education facilities, and one daycare centre, including the provision of school supplies.
