Description
On November 13, 2013, the Chinese Government donated USD $100,000 in emergency relief assistance to the Philippines for victims of Typhoon Haiyan, also known as Typhoon Yolanda. The Red Cross Society of China also donated $100,000 to the Philippines Red Cross Society. The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) Financial Tracking Service tracks these two flows together in flow ID #110500. This project is also linked to project #38098, a 10 million yuan donation worth of relief supplies from the Chinese government; and project #63918, aid worth 3.2M RMB from China Soong Ching Ling Foundation.
