In March 2020, the Philippines faced one of its toughest challenges yet: the Coronavirus Disease 2019, more popularly known as “COVID-19”.

Declared by the World Health Organization (WHO) as a global pandemic, the disease rapidly spread in the months that followed, bringing the confirmed cases to over 30,000 in the country by June 2020.

In a bid to prevent further spread of the virus, the government initially enforced the Enhanced Community Quarantine (ECQ), affecting the livelihood of many Filipinos, especially the poorest and most vulnerable families.

Launched in December 28, 2019, Phillipine Risk and Calamity Assistance Organization (PRCAO) is a non-profit organization service campaign designed to educate and empower the Filipino people to prepare for, respond to and mitigate emergencies, including natural and man-made disasters. The goal of the organization is to promote preparedness through public involvement.

Phillipine Risk and Calamity Assistance Organization (PRCAO) ask individuals to do four key things:

(1) stay informed about the different types of emergencies that could occur and their appropriate responses

(2) make a family emergency plan and

(3) build an emergency supply kit, and

(4) get involved in your community by taking action to prepare for emergencies.

Phillipine Risk and Calamity Assistance Organization (PRCAO) is the forum where organizations share knowledge and resources throughout the disaster cycle—preparation, response and recovery—to help disaster survivors and their communities.

Members of Phillipine Risk and Calamity Assistance Organization (PRCAO) form a coalition of nonprofit organizations that respond to disasters as part of their overall mission. Phillipine Risk and Calamity Assistance Organization (PRCAO) was founded in December 28, 2019.

Prior to the founding of Phillipine Risk and Calamity Assistance Organization (PRCAO), numerous organizations served disaster victims independently of one another. These included both government and the private, nonprofit sector. As a result, help came to the disaster victim haphazardly as various organizations assisted in specific ways. Unnecessary duplication of effort often occurred, while at the same time, other needs were not met. There was only limited availability of training for potential volunteers. Information for victims on services during disasters was woefully inadequate and communication among voluntary disaster agencies was very limited and coordination of services was negligible.

The seven founding organizations came together and committed to fostering the four C’s—communication, coordination, collaboration, and cooperation in order to better serve people impacted by disasters. Today, Phillipine Risk and Calamity Assistance Organization (PRCAO) is a leader and voice for the nonprofit organizations and volunteers that work in all phases of disaster—preparedness, response, relief, recovery, and mitigation. Phillipine Risk and Calamity Assistance Organization (PRCAO) is the primary point of contact for voluntary organization in the National Response Coordination Center (at FEMA headquarters) and is a signatory to the National Response Plan.
