Help us find those still missing from floods
As the waters have subsided in the hardest hit areas in Metro Manila and other nearby provinces, people are now literally picking up pieces of their homes, rebuilding what is left of it.
But while most people are trying their best to move on, some are still looking for missing family members, friends and relatives lost during flood caused by Ondoy, which killed more than 200 people.
As part of Yahoo! Southeast Asia’s effort to help in providing information and news about Ondoy and Pepeng’s aftermath, we’re launching this initiative to allow anyone to post photos of missing persons on Flickr, Yahoo!’s online photo sharing service. There are two ways to do this.
1. E-mail us a photo of the missing person at yseanewsroom@yahoo-inc.com
In the subject field, put “Typhoon Ondoy Missing Persons” and in the body text write the following information:
- Name:
- Age:
- Description of missing person: (e.g. Any unique features or clothing worn when last seen)
- Location of missing person where last seen:
- Who to contact and contact information:
2.Upload the photo in Flickr (http://flickr.com).
- If you don’t have a Flickr account yet, you can easily sign up using your Yahoo! email account.
- After uploading, make sure to put “Typhoon Ondoy Missing Persons” as the title of the image and in the description area, put the requested information about the missing person as mentioned in the first point.
- Tag all photos with the name of the missing person and “Typhoon Ondoy,” “missing person”.
may we request info of unlocated person, but we don’t have her picture? just name – Jovy Revilla, residing with sister Jonna in Pasig before Ondoy.
Thank you.
Send not just photos, it should be smiling photos clearly showing their teeth, frontal and other angles. Also include height, body built,and if they have previous fractures, information about this may also be of help. If you do not have photos, describe the missing person so that someone could paint or draw their picture as cartographers do.

I have not been back in our country since I was 16. I wished I had the yearning to, but I did not, although I still family there. However,a call of sense of duty,now gives my heart a desire to continue what I have always felt close to my heart, since I was a child. Now, I have an active moral responsibility to continue this Heaven’s culling, that I am working on putting together a Charitable Organization to reach to anyone who have the hearts to lend a helping hand because “We All Can.” So to “Super 8 Club Motorcycle Club” I will take you up on this comment you posted and reach out to your offer to help. Someone will contact you with your generous heart’s desire to lend a helping hand, and reach out to the one’s who needed you the most.
MY FRIEND shared with me of what he and his children did. They reached out to the Flood victims who were not accesible, at the time. Did not realized what could have happened, until it brought to my attention, called my family just to realize that my Mom nearly got stranded in a flood reached up atop a roof. Thank Heaven for this favoe! he brought me an Angel! I will follow through, until my heart stops bleeding.
Thank you!!!
