On September 26, tropical storm Ondoy hit the city of Manila in the Philippines, dumping a reported 34 cm of rain--equivalent to a month's worth of rainfall--in just six hours. A few days later, tropical storm Pepeng hit the northern island of Luzon, causing massive flooding and destruction. The storms are reported to have affected nearly four million people. In response, SGI-Philippines members promptly organized their own relief effort, delivering rice and other emergency supplies to people in the affected areas.
