You can do more to help meet the needs of those affected by the crisis in Marawi city.Various
organizations have called for donations, either in cash or in kind, to
help thousands of internally displaced persons (IDPs) who evacuated from
the war-torn city.
Although different organizations address different needs of Marawi
evacuees, all of them remind the public to be culturally sensitive since
most of the residents are Muslim.
Food donations should be halal,
meaning meals should be prepared in a way permissible to Islam culture.
Any kind of pork is forbidden.
Muslim women, in addition, are required to wear fully-covered clothes.
