Typhoon Phanfone (locally named Ursula) made initial landfall in Salcedo, Eastern Samar, as a category-2 typhoon on the evening of 24 December, subsequently making seven landfalls overall as it traversed the central archipelago. It displaced over 145,000 people and affected more than 2.1 million people in over 2,500 barangays (villages) in Regions V, VI, VII, VIII and MIMAROPA and Caraga.


As a form of "Malasakit" or Genuine Care, Zyque Faith Basa with her NGO, Sama-sama Tayong Lahat, spearheaded a relief operations campaign where a donation drive was done to collect donations in cash and in kind from their friends and partner organizations from all around the world.
This united effort made the following key activities possible: Relief Goods Distribution, Feeding Programs, and Disaster Preparedness Programs.
