IBM launches Ondoy Outreach Project online

I just got a meeting with IBM's PR person Owen Cammayo and he shared to me about this project that can help their IBM colleagues and other people who got affected in the recent typhoon  flood. They started now to have a shout out via Facebook Group for a call to other IBMers around the world to help and donate some for our fellow Pinoys who need it to recover their normal lives.

you can visit and check their page at http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=173600565139
and here are some notes from that page.


IBM extends its sympathies to the people of the Philippines following Tropical Storm Ondoy (Ketsana), which caused widespread flooding, loss of life and extensive damage to the nation. Since Saturday, IBM has initiated several actions in response to the flood crisis and we are committed to help through our networks with the recovery and relief efforts.

Dear IBMers and friends,
