The past few weeks, I’ve been hearing a bunch of races all being done for the benefit of the victims of Typhoon Yolanda. It’s been months since the typhoon hit but this country still has a long way to go. As we all know, a lot of homes were destroyed and turned to rubble when the typhoon hit. Several  victims have already found shelter in Manila, while others have no where else to go. “Takbo sa Pagbangon ng Leyte” is a Benefit Run for typhoon Yolanda survivors that seeks to address this specific need. Spearheaded by the Philippine Deposit Insurance Corporation (PDIC), the Run aims to promote public awareness on PDIC and its role in protecting the environment as well as raise funds to build disaster-resilient shelters for families in Leyte in partnership with Gawad Kalinga.
