This is my first post for charity. 100% SBD will go to the fire victims. Please upvote and resteem.
I woke up at around 7:30am, my wife telling me to check it out from our rooftop. There was only white smoke visible from a distance and I thought the firemen saved the houses for the home-owners. Later in the morning, we have identified a couple of the victims through chat and they happen to be acquaintances and a friend shared these photos.
About 7 houses were damaged or destroyed by fire in this apartment complex in Karangalan Street.
I have interviewed Sherlyn Sanoria through chat. She said they're still outside but they will set out to temporarily live with their relatives. According to her, the fire started at around 6:30am. They were not able to save much of their valuables. - Only what she needs for work. They must have gone out in a panic since the fire was spreading rapidly. The cause of the fire is still under investigation.
We truly appreciate your upvotes, kind-hearted fellow Steemians. The proceeds (100% SBD) will be converted to PHP (Philippine Pesos) and will reach their family within a couple of days upon payout.
Fires really seem to be much more common in March. No wonder, it's proclaimed by the Philippine government as "Fire Prevention Month." For fire prevention tips, please check my previous post. Thank you.
Thanks for reading/viewing!
