On November 8^th Typhoon Haiyan made landfall and devastated the central Philippines. The suffering of the people affected by this natural disaster is hard to fathom: Nearly 10 million people appear to have been affected by the storm and more than 3,600 are dead and the toll is mounting.

Assumptionists  in the United States and at Assumption College are offering consolation, courage, strength and perseverance in the midst of these horrific events. We are calling upon the Assumption College community to help our brothers and sisters in the Philippines.

Online: Click “DONATE” on the left hand side of the webpage, follow the instructions for donating to the Annual Fund and enter “Typhoon Relief” in the note line at the end of the process.

Mail: You may also mail donations directly to the Assumptionist community in Brighton at:

Augustinians of the Assumption
ATTN: Typhoon Haiyan Relief
330 Market Street
Brighton MA, 02135

All monetary donations will be sent to the Assumptionist-Philippines’ Kaloob Foundation, who are in contact with the Church’s Social Action, or the APAC Justice and Peace Desk.

Let us stand in sol darity with the victims of the typhoon in the Philippines. We pray for God’s healing in the midst of all grief and loss.

Brother Ronald Sibugan, A.A.
