Here's how you can help the families of the 44 fallen SAF
MANILA, Philippines - The soldiers who were once husbands, boyfriends, fathers and sons to their parents, and now heroes to the country have fallen while trying to carry out a mission to protect the country. As individuals, we could help their families go through the grieving process softly by lending help.
In solidarity with the families of the 44 cops who lost their lives in the recent police operation in Mamasapano, Maguindanao, the government declared Friday, January 30th, a National Day of Mourning.
In line with that, several companies made some initiatives to help the families of the bereaved.
