Program Overview
We at Billaboong are incredibly sad to hear and see the devastation that Typhoon Rai ‘Odette’ has wreaked over the Siargao. A pristine island off the southern coast of the Philippines, Siargao is the first home of our much loved Josie Prendergast. The villages have been flattened and the locals left destitute. They are resilient and hardworking but are in desperate need of the most basic essentials, clean water, food, sanitation and housing.
Billabong is partnering with Waves for Water to raise much needed funds and will match donations to the value of $10,000AUD. While this is such a wonderful time of the year for most – this community is suffering. Please consider donating.
