UNICEF: Help Children affected by Typhoon Haiyan

UNICEF on hand to help children affected by Typhoon Haiyan

Category five typhoon Haiyan has struck the Philippines forcing more than one million people to seek shelter.

UNICEF is on hand to help children affected by Typhoon Haiyan, which hit the Philippines at 4.30am local time today with winds of 235 km per hour.

The super typhoon has ripped roofs off housing, uprooted trees and affected businesses, but the full extent of the damage will not be known until the storm has passed.

As in any natural or man-made disasters, children are among those who suffer the most. UNICEF has a team ready to access the needs of children affected, and we're standing by to help the government reach out to families affected by typhoon.

If funds raised exceed amount needed for this appeal, funds will be used to help chilldren in need across the world.
