The aftermath of Typhoon Haiyan (Yolanda) left 600 individuals dead. Many of the casualties were the male heads-of-households who stayed behind to safety the property of the family. The children affected by the typhoon were traumatize as they witnessed their homes as well as their families and friend washed away. 

Two of these children (Hazel and Jane), survived the calamity by grabbing unto the branches of trees in their path as they were carried by the flood. 

These children were witnessed by Edison Paldas while they were cleaning their own school classrooms.

When asked why they were cleaning the classrooms they said that, they wanted to start studying again and wanted to help by cleaning the classrooms. 

We've also ask them their reason if why they have to donate boots and raincoats instead of other necessities, so according to Edison Paldas, raincoat signifies safety from the children in Palo Leyte because they were traumatize from the rain, they will feel secure while wearing this given donations.
