MANILA,
Philippines --- The Philippine House of Representatives will award a
congressional citation to fashion designer Yoko Ono, widow of rock
legend John Lennon, for her generous donation to the victims of typhoon
“Pablo” in Mindanao.
This developed as financial assistance and material donations
continued to flow for the Mindanao victims who lost relatives and have
been rendered homeless when typhoon Pablo unleashed huge amounts of
rains that flooded many parts of Davao region.
Recent donors included Rotary International District 3780 members and
members of the Court of Appeals led by Associate Justices Danton Bueser
and Ricardo Rosario.
Rotary Clubs in Quezon City led by RI Governor Penny Policarpio
visited typhoon victims on Tuesday to donate truckloads of relief goods
and food.
Quezon City Rep. Winston Castelo filed House Resolution 3010 to commend On for “her generous donation” to Pablo victims.
Ono, Japanese wife of Beatles legend John Lennon, sent $10,000 or
P406,250 to help fund relief and rehabilitation efforts for the
thousands of Mindanao families displaced by the typhoon.
