Manny Pacquiao Launches Relief Fundraiser

Manny Pacquiao has launched a relief fundraiser to support families impacted by the earthquake in southern Philippines. On June 8, a magnitude-7.8 quake hit off the coast of Mindanao, leaving at least 35 people dead and thousands displaced.

The earthquake caused widespread destruction, including collapsed buildings and landslides, with over 10,000 families forced to evacuate.

Manny Pacquiao's response to the disaster is deeply personal, given his roots in General Santos City, which was affected by the earthquake.

Pacquiao's foundation is coordinating both immediate relief and longer-term recovery efforts for impacted communities.

The former world champion thanked first responders and urged supporters to pray for those affected.

The fundraiser aims to support longer-term rebuilding projects, including community recovery and infrastructure restoration.

As of now, the GoFundMe campaign has raised roughly $2,500 toward its $6,000 goal.

Manny Pacquiao described General Santos City as “the place that shaped my life” and acknowledged the emotional toll of the disaster.

The relief plan includes donations earmarked for food, clean water, temporary shelter, medical supplies, and hygiene kits.

Pacquiao's foundation will assist vulnerable residents, providing them with necessary aid.

The Mindanao earthquake has left thousands of people without homes, and Pacquiao's efforts aim to provide them with shelter and support.

The boxer's initiative has sparked hope for the affected communities, and his foundation will continue to work towards their recovery.
