June 26, 2016 - DLSU Students at Greenbriar West VA Need Help!

Dear Fellow Lasallians,

Seven of the 55 students on OJT at Greenbriar in West Virginia are gravely affected by the heavy flooding in West Virginia.  Click on this 7 DLSU Students Flooded in West VA for more info.  The house that they were staying in was swept away by the flood and they have nothing left except the clothes that they are wearing.  Per information from Consul General Emil Fernandez of the Philippine Embassy, they need the following basic items:

• canned goods
• bottled water
• toiletries
• shoes
• used clothing in good condition
• kitchen knives
• pillows
• bed blankets and covers

Please send these donations to the residence of Leony Gimeno at 8101 Chars Landing Court, Springfield VA 22153 (Home Phone 703-455-6059 or Leony's Cell 571-278-4834) from today until tomorrow evening, Monday, June 27th.

If you can donate cash, it would be better so they will have the flexibility to buy the basic items that they need.  Kindly click on the donations link above.  Any amount that you can give will be greatly appreciated.

All donations that we will receive in cash and in kind will be delivered to the Philippine Embassy on Tuesday morning c/o Consul General Emil Fernandez.  Representatives from the Embassy will be going to see the affected DLSU students as soon as the highways are declared passable by the State of West VA, tentatively scheduled on Tuesday.

Once again, we knock on the hearts of LSPAA members to help fellow Lasallians.  You have never failed to wave that shield of green and white in times of crisis!  ANIMO heart!

Yours in St. La Salle!
