What was expected to be a run-off-the-mill typhoon that most Filipinos were used to became a force of nature that wreaked havoc across parts of the country. On June 22, 2008, Typhoon Frank battered the Visayas with very strong winds and heavy rains, leaving in its wake destroyed houses, damaged buildings, and devastated families.
Entire provinces did not have power, communication lines nor drinking water, days after the Typhoon struck. Some of the hardest hit areas were in Iloilo.
Atlas Copco (Philippines) Inc donated aid to those severely affected by the typhoon through ABS-CBN Foundation’s Sagip Kapamilya program. Jonnie Regis, Philippine Compressor Technique General Manager, said, “We want to help our brethren who were hit fiercely by Typhoon Frank. We coursed our donation through Sagip Kapamilya. We feel that they can truly help these people in these dire times. We know they can bounce back from this calamity.”
