Reports show that over 600,000 Filipinos have been affected.The
impact of over 500,000 hectares of damaged crops will become more
evident in the coming weeks, and the long-term effects on
infrastructure and agriculture will take some time to assess and
repair.
The ICM team will remain in contact with agencies providing
immediate relief and those that may need support in the future.

At ICM, we believe that no one should live in abject poverty. With the right support, the right training, and the right resources, the bondages of poverty can be broken.
In the last few years, ICM's community-based, holistic solutions have reached more than 750,000 people living in poverty - building resilience and greater well-being in families and whole communities across the Visayas and Mindanao. This wide impact is possible through a strategy of partnering with the local churches found in most low-income Philippine communities, inspiring hope and providing help to transform lives.
After our four-month Transform program, ICM's ultrapoor participant experiences: - 106% increase in household income - 43% increase in self-worth - 28% decrease in serious illnesses
