Program Overview

    Taal Volcano, located 60km south from Metro Manila, spewed ash plumes last Sunday that has brought the volcano to warning Level 4, one level away from a magmatic eruption.

    Over a million Filipinos have been affected or evacuated to the other rims of the volcano. A day after the first ash plume Waves For Water Philippines, with support from Bikerbox, started by implementing portable water filtration systems in the evacuation areas in Batangas. With government offices and fellow disaster response organizations working tirelessly on the current phase of the eruption, Waves For Water is focusing on our response after the imminent eruption where we foresee a large wave of displacement. This first phase will be designed to mitigate the immediate suffering of the most impacted families, by implementing portable water filtration systems in communities in need.
