Philippines Typhoon Haiyan Relief Efforts BeginOn 8th November 2013, a Category 5 typhoon, named Haiyan, made landfall in Guiuan, a small town in the Eastern Samar province of the Philippines. The storm affected an estimated 15 million people, with 6,000 reported dead. In the town of Samar, the roof of a house that belonged to a Sathya Sai devotee was blown away in the storm and the walls collapsed.
