Czech Republic Humanitarian Aid concluded a successful project with Build Change and its nonprofit partners on September 30 to improve the local capacity of shelter response programs following Typhoon Ompong.

The project, worth P7.7 million, which started in December 2018, also worked directly with local communities to strengthen or rebuild storm-damaged houses due to Typhoon Ompong which struck the Philippines in September 2018. It was responsible for at least 127 fatalities and US$627 million in property losses, making it the fourth costliest Philippine typhoon of all time.
