From 3:25 pm of Sept. 27 to 3:25 pm of Sept. 28, TXTPower received the following donations  for victims of tropical storm Ondoy (Ketsana):

Paypal: P486,328.39 ($10,548.05)

SmartMoney: P156.oo
——————————————-
Total: P486,684.39

As soon as these amounts are credited to the bank account, we will immediately turn them over to the Philippine National Red Cross in the form of manager’s checks. We will make the donation for and in behalf of all the donors who contributed via Paypal, SmartMoney and GCash.

All proceeds from the TXTPower fund drive will go the Philippine National Red Cross for their relief missions to assist victims of typhoon Ondoy in the Philippines. We have informed the PNRC through the office of secretary-general Gwendolyn Pang about the operations of the TXTPower fund drive.

More help is needed. Donate now via Paypal.
