On the other hand, Luis Buenaventura II expressed that he was impressed by the small amount of donations coming, implying that everyone wants to help.
“@YGGPilipinas has received a lot of big donations from crypto whales, but the ones that I am most impressed by are the ones coming thru GCash a few hundred pesos ($5-10) at a time,” he added.
Buenaventura stated that the “bite-sized” donations push the guild to work harder on its typhoon response.
“Your generosity is proof that wagmi,” he ended.
Typhoon Odette may have washed some of the possessions we worked hard for. But remember
WAGMI.
