ITMT sends Rice to the Philippines

Covid-19 and its variants continue to rage across Philippines. Each week we are getting updates from our many partners that range from the north to the south of the country. This past week we heard about some slow improvements. There are vaccination shortages throughout the entire country and the death toll continues to rise.

The lack of healthcare infrastructure in both urban and rural areas has led to major strain in caring for the sick. Managing the complex logistics of distributing vaccines within the second most populated country in the world has been an extraordinary challenge.

Through it all we stand with our partners to carry out relief efforts together. From the beginning of the pandemic until today we survey communities and assess the most critical needs. Then we provide food relief, giving food packages to families to carry them through this ongoing crisis. We also connect our local church network to continue relationships with those receiving relief.

To help during these difficult times, ITMT has been instrumental with the the distribution of rice and financial support to many families in the Philippines.
