Philippine Red Cross to the rescue as number of

quake-affected schools in Mindanao rise

The Philippine Red Cross (PRC) will send Temporary Learning

Spaces (TLS) to areas affected by the series of earthquakes particularly in
two of the hardest-hit provinces, North Cotabato and Davao del Sur.

“This mission will be headed by Red Cross Youth (RCY) staff to

help thousands of displaced students to ensure the continuity of education
after their schools were damaged by temblors while other learning facilities
are now being utilized as temporary evacuation centers,” PRC Chairman
Richard Gordon said.

A total of 10 TLS will be initially deployed or 5 tents each

for North Cotabato and Davao del Sur.  Each tent can accommodate
40 to 50 students. These tents are expected to arrive in their
designated locations by Monday, November 18.
