As you may have heard and seen in the news, super typhoon Haiyan {Yolanda} hit Philippines last Friday. It has killed over 10,000 people, and has left so many more without the basic necessities, such as shelter, power, food, water, and medicine, just to name a few. Being a Filipino myself, it really broke my heart to see and hear about what my people are going through right now. I couldn't and still can't even fathom it. And I felt so helpless...until...
...a lovely friend of mine,
Krishna Marinas, has put a {personal} fundraiser together called
The Love Movement. Philippines is also home to her, and she wanted to come up with a practical way to help those who need it most, and now you can, too! This event is happening tonight at Conch {Ponsonby, Auckland} from 5pm-8pm. Check out the poster below for all the details.
Krishna was also invited to speak at 3 News Live this morning, where she shared why she started this movement and what she'll be doing with all the funds raised. If you'd like to see this video, click on this

I really hope you can make it tonight! If not, there are other ways you can donate. Just go to
The Love Movement on facebook for all the details. Oh, and did I forget to mention that there's going to be a spectacular raffle tonight? Some AHHHHMAZING prizes to be won, so don't miss out!!
Hope to see you there!

Jackie
