Batangas town asks public to stop donating clothes due to oversupply

“Sobra-sobra ang aming natatanggap. Kung mapapansin mo ang ating mga evacuees halos nagsawa na sa pagpili o pagkuha ng damit na kanilang mapapakinabangan,” Vice Mayor Oscarlito Hernandez told ABS-CBN News.

Hernandez added that they were grateful for all the help San Luis has received over the two weeks it sheltered evacuees from surrounding towns such as Agoncillo, Lemery, and Taal. Earlier, a parish in Lipa, Batangas announced that it will stop receiving donation of clothes due to oversupply. As such, it was encouraging people to either give monetary donations or send blankets, mats, food, uncooked rice, water, hygiene kits, and N95 face masks.

YEAH! Because they need MONEY!!! No one is giving them money! The huge amount of money has reached NO ONE yet! None of the victims! In 2 weeks time I did only get help from family in Europe, otherwise I would kiss the asses of the government too
