When a super typhoon struck the country and seriously flooded some areas in the Luzon region lin December last year, RCMFP wasted no time mobilizing everyone and gathering food, clothes and other essentials to be brought via Coastguard helicopters to the tens of thousands of victims, many of whom lost their homes and were vulnerable to starvation and disease. In conjunction with the Philippine Coastguard, hundreds of prepared bags of rice, noodles, canned goods, clothes, blankets, candles, etc. were dropped from the Coastguard choppers to the deeply flooded, hard to reach areas in the affected areas. RCFMP also donated the fuel used by the choppers.
