In light of the devastating typhoon that has hit the Philippians and the aftermath the region is currently facing, APALSA will be collecting donations to donate to the Red Cross. 100% of the donations will go to the aid of the thousands in the region affected by the storm.

PLEASE find it in your hearts, dig deep in your pockets and give what you can.

You can give any donations to any of the E-baord members. We are also working with Cooley administration to set up a donation collection bin in the Cooley Center. Or you can donate directly to the Red Cross here.

On behalf of APALSA and all those affected in the region, we thank you.
