It all started with a 6.9 earthquake that hit Bogo, Cebu last Sept 30, 2025 then followed by hundreds of aftershocks.
It was a lot for most of us here in Cebu, especially the victims of this calamity. Thankfully, my family and I were all safe from the devastation, although my grandparents' house is now in shambles. This house I am staying in is made of wood and was unharmed during the earthquake but I still had to moved in with my parents in the city for a month for my own safety.
It's been more than a month now, too many aftershocks and even two typhoons have already passed us here. It took a toll on me thus I wasn't able to provide you with this transparency report sooner. But here I am now.
As some of you know, I initiated a donation drive for the victims of the 6.9 earthquake last oct 1, 2025. You can read the post here.
Organizing, buying and distributing the goods was not an easy feat. It was all in a rush. I couldn't wait for the post payouts since time was of the essence, so I purchased all goods using my brother's credit card with faith that somehow the Hive community would be able to help me raise funds which later on I used to pay off the expenses. I mentioned to @ybanezkim26 that I was ready to shoulder the expense myself, but our Hive community really showed up.
I did all the shopping and I had my brother and father helped me prepare and deliver the goods but after doing that, I was so exhausted. So I am grateful to @ybanezkim26 for immediately providing everyone here an update in my behalf.
So this post will be a transparency report on the funds collected and where it was used.

SUMMARY
I am truly grateful to each and everyone of you who helped me raised PHP 46,532.33 or approximately US $791.60 for this donation drive. Though I was only able to generate 15 bags of goods, it already contained essential needs like lights, tents, tarps, and groceries for our fellow Hivers which were really useful especially after the hundreds of aftershocks that followed. Most of these hivers resorted to sleeping outside their homes for days or weeks so please know your donations, big or small, have impacted their lives in many ways than you can imagine.
The following were the beneficiaries of our donation drive:
- @ciadanmea
- @mommyjane
- @callmesmile
- @daenerhys
- @dehai
- @selflessgem
- @naymhapz
- @doughnahhh
- @juralyrondina
- @mkyzxna
- @iamhug
- @langqt
- @missleray
- @selflessgem
- @mommyjane's churchmate

Special thanks to @missleray, @naymhapz, and @callmesmile for being our drop off/pick up points for some of the goods since I cannot deliver the bags individually.
After this donation drive, I realized more Hivers need help so I had a second batch of relief goods dispatched to our fellow Hivers. This I will share with you in my next blog.
Thank you once again Hive!

Thank you again, Ma'am Clara. All you have given to us is so very useful, especially for us that don't have a house anymore because it was destroyed by the strong earthquake. The tent is so very useful we use it for our temporary shelter and the tarp also, and since we don't have electricity the solar and the solar electric fan help us, especially since we have an infant.
