Wazzup Pilipinas!
Travelers planning a trip to Capiz can now help improve communities while enjoying its destinations.
The Provincial Government of Capiz, in cooperation with the Department of Tourism – Western Visayas Region, launched the voluntourism campaign Tindog Capiz! to allow visitors a hands-on experience in the rehabilitation efforts following the devastation caused by the deadly Supertyphoon Yolanda.
Capiz is one of the provinces severely hit by the storm which has left the Visayas and Southern Luzon with more than 7,000 people dead or missing and damaged properties.
Tindog Capiz! will showcase the province’s top destinations like indigenous people’s communities, heritage sites, pilgrim sites, and ecotourism sites. It will also feature activities that benefit various sectors like tree and mangrove planting, schools and houses building, feeding programs, livelihood training, and many others.
