The 3 shipments arrived on November 29, 30 and December 1, 2013
in Manila. Thru Galing Foundation, Inc. Mindanao Outreach, we were able to recommend You Against Corruption and Poverty (YACAP) Foundation which is also a
Party-List of the Philippines House of Congress as the partner for relief
distribution. To be cleared tax free from the Bureau of Customs, YACAP
Foundation thru the efforts of Congresswoman Carol Lopez facilitated the proper
documentation with the Department of Social Welfare and Development Office
(DSWDO). "This Wednesday, 29th of January, we will have a formal turnover of the relief goods in Congress. It will be participated by about 25 congressmen, both House officials and district congressmen of Leyte and Samar and the flooded areas in Mindanao. This will be covered by media. The Speaker of the House will be there as well." - Congresswoman Lopez
