LSGH has it fine. The suspension of classes until Friday gives more time for volunteers to do their work. There's actually quite a lot of volunteers to help out in various places. There was even a bus load of people from Ateneo who helped out in loading goods in the truck. One of them was an acquaintance from college, and she mentioned they were sent to La Salle to help out because there were already too many volunteers in Ateneo de Manila. I also heard from a radio broadcast that there are an adequate number of volunteers in various relief centers, but goods and donations are needed much more.
We loaded relief goods to various vehicles from flatbed trucks, army trucks, and even regular vans, all headed to various relief centers for distribution. The flatbed trucks in particular were headed for Camp Aguinaldo for air-lifting to areas still impassable due to floods. Like what the news said, there's an overabundance of used clothing and we need more food and water at the moment. The canteen beneath the gymnasium looks like a warehouse with various clothes sorted into various categories.
