US will provide an additional P950 million in humanitarian assistance for survivors of Typhoon Odette, its embassy in the Philippines said Wednesday.

MANILA—The United States will provide an additional P950 million in humanitarian assistance for survivors of Typhoon Odette, its embassy in the Philippines said Wednesday.

“The United States is pleased to announce an additional and significant assistance of P950 million, which brings our total amount of aid for Typhoon Odette to over P1 billion," Chargé d’Affaires ad interim Heather Variava said in a statement. The US government, through the US Agency for International Development, will provide food and hygiene supplies, and shelter assistance to help affected communities start rebuilding their homes.

This assistance also builds on the P10 million that USAID provided immediately after the storm. USAID works year-round to help communities in the Philippines prepare for natural disasters.
