In our own small way, 8List would like to spearhead a donation drive for used plastic or canvas tarpaulins for the victims of Typhoon Yolanda/Haiyan.
Send your used tarps to 3/F Zaragoza Bldg., 102 Gamboa St., Legaspi Village, Makati City (Monday to Friday, 7am to 8pm).
Acknowledgement receipts will be issued. You may contact editor@8list.ph or 893-7472 to 73 loc. 120 (Melody) for details. Kindly contact us prior to delivery of bulk donations so we may coordinate the logistics. Thank you very much.
As rebuilding efforts get underway, tarps can serve a number of uses:
8. Can be repurposed as tent-material or awning material6. As weatherproof covers for items (especially during transportation)
4. As material for containers and bags (If needed, as body bags, to avoid public health risks)
3. Temporary sleeping mats
2. Temporary flooring cover over dirt and outdoor areas
1. As stretchers
