The impact of Typhoon Haiyan has been devastating. UN and Philippine government estimates more than 9.7 million people are affected in 41 provinces across nine regions across the country.

With the help of local Marin businesses and tennis/athletic clubs, three Mill Valley women have organized an effort to collect much needed supplies for the victims of Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines.

“The world has responded and we want to help in this most pressing time,” said project leader Liz Miranda, “And we could use your help to also.”
