More than P270,000 has been pledged by staff of the Center for Community Transformation (CCT) Group of Ministries toward survivors of Super Typhoon Yolanda.
As of November 18, some 317 staff had pledged P129,100 from their capital build up (CBU), six staff had donated P11,500 from their savings build up (SBU), and 261 had offered to give up the food hampers given by the organization every Christmas in favor of sending the cash equivalent to the survivors in the Visayas.This was learned from Cris Manabat of CCT's Jehovah Jireh Credit Cooperative. CBUs and SBUs are amounts regularly deducted from the salaries of CCT staff.
The CCT Savings and Credit Cooperative has micro finance operations in the Yolanda hard-hit provinces of Iloilo and Capiz on Panay Island. It began savings mobilization work in Tacloban, Leyte earlier this year .
