CA-3-D001941001 2026-07-14T06:32:38 December 2014 - Typhoon Hagupit (locally known as Ruby) made landfall in the Philippines as a category 3 typhoon on December 6, 2014. It struck the far eastern island of Samar with winds of 210km/h which makes it the most powerful storm to hit the Philippines in 2014. The Government of the Philippines has confirmed 18 deaths and reported 241,700 houses damaged or destroyed across the affected areas, as well as more than $82 million worth of damages in agriculture and infrastructure. According to the Philippines’ National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council, Typhoon Hagupit has affected nearly 3.9 million people in the regions of eastern Visayas (Samar) and southern Luzon who are in need for assistance. With DFATD’s support, World Renew is working to meet the immediate needs of 4,154 typhoon-affected households. Activities include: (1) providing shelter kits including tents, tarps and tools for repairs; (2) providing food baskets; (3) providing household and hygiene kits including items such as blankets, heating oil, and soap; and (4) providing seeds to re-establish lost agricultural livelihoods.
