Awan ti saan kadagiti kadaraan no kastoy a dumteng ti didigra ti padana. Kasano ngamin a mapagkedkedan ti maysa a tignay wenno kampania a mangur-or ti tulong no iti agdadata a kinapudno ket agsagsagaba dagiti kadaraan.

Ania la ket ngaminen a kinadamsak dayta a Yolanda a nangduprak ken nangdamsak ti katengngaan ti ka-Visayaan ken dagiti kaparanget a lugar. Ania la ket ngaminen aya a kinadawel ti inna inted kadagiti agindeg kadagitoy a luglugar. Ni awanan kaasi, ni awanan ti pilpilienna nga ilugluges ken iwagtewagteng iti kinadangkok daytoy a bandido ti kinadawel.  

Kinaranggas ti amin ti impaayna kadagiti amin a nadalapusna iti nakaparsuaan iti baba ti langit ken iti rabaw ti daga.

Dagita nga asug, dagita a saning-i, dagita kinarungsot.Biag, sanikua, saanna a pinakawan nga inggudas. Dagiti bangkay, dagiti nadalutaytay, dagiti ikkis, dagiti sangsangit ni maririgatan. Sangsangit ni nagpasina ken napanawan. Dagiti saan a malasin a kabagian ken kameng ti pamilia.

Inagaw ti dawel. Ginudas ti nasakit a panagsagaba.

Dagiti ipupusay ken saan a napakadaan a pannakaipusing ken pannakaibartay.

Ita a masursurat daytoy, nagtignay ti Hawaii, nagtignay ti komunidad, adda kaniakania a wagas ti panagur-or. Kania kania a panangidalan. Nagtignayen ti Rapid Response iti salinong ti Oahu Filipino Community Council [OFCC] a saksakupen ti Special Projects. Asu metten dagiti nanglesles  ti ima ti pagan-anayda. Adda dagiti kimmaut kadagiti bolsada. Dagiti nagpirma ti tsekeda. Adun nga naiwayat a kita ti panagur-or. Maibilang ti fishnet wenno cash net a  maitaya dagitoy batbateng ken supot. Dagitoy a boluntario a kaaduanna ti adda iti OFCC ken dadduma a gunglo Filipino a kas iti Vigan, Ilocos Surian, Sinait, La Union, Bulacan, Cabugao, ken no isapasap a sarita, amin amin a seknan ti panagayat ken pannakitinnulong.

Adu pay nakaeskedeul dagiti kita ti fundraising a maangay.

Ti OFCC Rapid Response ket nairanta a mangurnong tip undo, adda man ken awan ti kalamidad. Nairanta a mangurnos ti pondo, tulong a madagdagus a maaramat ken maited. Saan ketdi nga agkuti laeng ti komnunidad no umayen wenno madaman ti rigat.

Ti OFCC ken AARP ti agdanggay a mangisakad ti naindaklan a proyekto a mangitag-ay ti nasalun-at ken nasayaat a programa ti Family Walk For Fun para iti Disiembre 14, 2013 a maangay iti Magic Island, Ala Moana Beach Park iti asideg ti Waikiki.

Saan met a nagpaudi ti KNDI, aksion a dagus. Binuniaganda ti Operation Tulong.  Urnos  dita, koleksion ditoy. Kuna ni Station Owner/Manager Gerry Malabed: maawat amin a donasion, lupot, delata, ules, makan ken kuarta.

Adda met ti Filipino Chamber of Commerce, ti Kokua Philippines ken dadduma. Mapasungadan dagiti maangay a konsierto ken  dadduma a wagas. Ti nasken: ti maurnong tapno adda mainayon a maited.

Uray ti mayor ti Maui County Alan Arakawa ket nagtignay met a dagus a tumulong kadagiti agsagsagaba iti rigat.

Inkari met ni Hawaii Governor Neil Abercrombie ti tulong ti gobierno babaen kadagiti masnop nga ahensia ti turay.

Kadagiti simbaan, adda met dagiti relief fund ket inkarida met a tumulongda.

Wagwagenyo ti bolsa ken petakayo, kuna ni Apo Padi

Kas wagas a pangtulong, imbilin met ti Obispo ti Hawaii Diocese nga amin a koleksion iti Thanksgiving ket para ti Relief idiay Filipinas.

Adu metten dagiti grupo ti negosiante ken korporasion a nagited iti tulongda tapno maikkan ti maikadua a gundaway nga agbiag ken bumangon nga agbiag dagiti binasnot ti dawel. Baro a biag. Baro a namnama iti sabali nga aldaw.

Saan met a makidem dagiti sabali a puli ken nasion ti matada iti daytoy nadidigra a pagteng a namsaak ni Yolanda. No kasano ti kadakkel ti puso ti America nga ipanguluan ti agdama a presidente Barack Obama kas ti napardas a panangibilinna kadagiti ayudantena iti masnop a departamento ti gobierno, addadan sadiay dagiti rinibu a kameng ti puersa ken kameng ti volunteer groups.

Nakaukrad amin a takiag ken im-ima dagiti addaan puso a tumulong. Saanda met a mabalin ti agdalikepkep ken mangbuelta ti kastoy a buya ti panagsagaba.

Mangted. Mangted. Agayat. Agayat. Agayat iti pada a tao nga adda iti karitan. Ti Mata ti Dios, makitanaka. Ti Ima ti Dios, sagidennaka. Taoka, padaka a tao- a makatulong, a managayat. Ti aramidmo ket saan a barengbareng. Namnamanaka ni kapadam a parsua nga adda iti karigatan.

Ayat ti itedmo. Ayatto met ti maisagut kenka.
