By: Saint Paul School of Business and Law "In the spirit of the Christmas season, our school wishes to extend our help to typhoon victims. It is now our turn," the school president said. In a simple turnover ceremony, the president of the prestigious accounting school, Dean Erwin Vincent G. Alcala, assisted by the Vice-President, Eunice Pagatpat, donated over 200 pieces of bottled water, 10 sacks of rice, assorted canned goods and cash intended for delivery to typhoon victims in the wake of the storm's destruction. The donation benefitted almost 300 families in Brgy. Salvacion through Rev. Fr. Alcris Badana of the Archdiocese of Palo's Relief and Rehabilitation Unit. "We are grateful for our sponsors, especially Saint Paul School who were one with us in helping our people," he said. Typhoon Jangmi or locally named Seniang, has left 70 people dead and almost 47 bridges damaged in the Visayas and Mindanao according to the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council. Seniang, which had winds of 65 kph near the center with gusts of 80 kph, officially caused more deaths than Typhoon Ruby that hit Eastern Visayas and nearby provinces in early December. Ruby, which was even compared to Super Typhoon Yolanda, had winds of more than 200 kph and gustiness of more than 260 kph. End
