china sends only $100,000 in aid to philippine, page-2

How much did the Roman Church give?

"Pope Francis, through the Vatican's Cor Unum Council, agreed to send $150,000 to the Catholic Church in the Philippines. The money will be distributed among the dioceses hardest hit by the storm.

Meanwhile the Vatican's official aid agency, Caritas Internationalis, created a special fund where people can donate to support aid efforts. They also have aid workers on the ground, assessing the damage and helping out victims."


You'd have to think that the Catholic Church would collect more in their Sunday plates than that every week in the Philippines alone.
