With every report coming out of the Philippines worse than the last, many of us are looking for ways to help. Typhoon Haiyan (also called Yolanda), which made landfall on Friday packing 147 mph winds and a 20-foot rise in sea waters, is the worst typhoon to have hit the Philippines. According to the latest numbers, 10,000 people are feared dead, and many, many more are without shelter, food, and water.

Fortunately, international rescue and recovery groups are heading to the storm-battered country, and we've compiled a list of organizations where you can donate.
The Philippine Red Cross Donations (100 PHP is equal to $2.30) will help mobilize teams on the ground with rescue and relief efforts. They also have a tracking page to help find family members.
The American Red Cross You can donate online, or to support relief in the Philippines you can mail a check to your local American Red Cross chapter designating Philippines Typhoons and Flood in the memo line.
UNICEF Supporting relief efforts by helping displaced families find access to shelter, clean water, food, and vaccines, the group is also airlifting additional supplies from its Copenhagen warehouse. You can donate online, call 800-367-5437, or text RELIEF to 864233.
Catholic Relief Services With more than 86 percent of the region identifying as Roman Catholic, CRS is already entrenched in the Philippines. CRS is prioritizing emergency shelter, water and sanitation, household items (blankets, kitchen items, cookware), potable water, and toilets.
Save the Children Donations will go toward helping children in the Philippines, as well as Vietnam and Laos (Typhoon Haiyan is headed their way). Ten percent of all donations goes toward preparing for future disasters in affected areas.
Habitat for Humanity Donations to Habitat will go toward funding shelter repair kits for families rebuilding their homes.
