Cebu Earthquake Relief 2025 is underway after a devastating 6.9-magnitude quake struck northern Cebu in the Philippines on September 30, 2025. The earthquake destroyed homes, cut off roads, and forced thousands of families to sleep outdoors under plastic sheets as more than 8,000 aftershocks rattled the region.
In response, the HighLevel community around the world has united behind Filipino leader Jay Cee Tan and her team to launch this global campaign. The goal of Cebu Earthquake Relief 2025 is to raise $20,000 USD to provide tents, bottled water, food packs, hygiene kits, and medicine directly to survivors in northern Cebu.

How the HighLevel Pilipinas Community Responded
Led by Jay Cee Tan, a HighLevel Certified Admin and SaaSpreneur Diamond Awardee, the HighLevel Pilipinas community launched a global fundraiser with the goal of raising $20,000 USD for relief.
Funds are being used to provide:
• Tents and tarpaulins for temporary shelter
• Drinking water where safe supplies are cut off
• Rice, canned goods, and food packs for daily survival
• Medicine and hygiene kits to prevent illness in crowded areas
With a local team on the ground, these essentials are being delivered directly to families in towns that official relief efforts haven’t yet reached.

A Workshop That Became a Lifeline
One of the most powerful moments of this relief drive came through the ₱100K Automation Workshop.
Held just days after the earthquake, the workshop united HighLevel users and freelancers worldwide. Tickets were sold at ₱997 (~$18 USD), with 50% of proceeds donated to earthquake relief.
What began as a training session on HighLevel automation systems became a global act of generosity. Attendees not only gained valuable business skills but also contributed to life-saving aid in Cebu.
The workshop sold out, and together with direct donations, it helped bring the fundraiser to within striking distance of its $20,000 goal.
Support From Around the World
Beyond the workshop, donations and support are flowing in from every corner of the HighLevel network:
• International entrepreneurs sent direct contributions.
• Many coaches, developers and agency owners pledged their own products and coaching sales proceeds to Cebu relief.
This response demonstrates the growth and strength of HighLevel Philippines, which has become a hub of global collaboration and innovation

Relief Efforts Amid Global Commitments
What makes this campaign even more remarkable is the timing. Jay-Cee Tan and her team led these relief efforts only days before departing for the United States, where she is speaking at two major international events:
• AI Marketing World
• HighLevel’s LevelUP Summit
It’s a striking example of leadership under pressure: balancing global stages with urgent local action. Even while preparing to represent Filipino freelancers internationally, Cece is prioritizing the mobilization of aid for Cebu families.
How You Can Still Help
Once the workshop has ended, the need for relief continues. Survivors face weeks – if not months – of displacement, food insecurity, and recovery challenges.
You can still join the global effort in two ways:
1. Donate Directly via PayPal: paypal.me/jtvirtualassistants
• 100% of your contribution goes to tents, food, water, and medicine.
• Every dollar has immediate, tangible impact for Cebu families.
2. Share the Campaign
• Amplify this story to your own networks. Awareness fuels donations, which fuels relief.
A Global Community Answering the Call
The Cebu earthquake relief campaign is more than a fundraiser. It’s a story of how the HighLevel community around the world turned compassion into action – proving that a professional network can also be a humanitarian force.
From freelancers in Manila to entrepreneurs in the US and Europe, support has poured in, bringing hope to families in Cebu who have lost everything.
With less than $5,000 left to raise, your contribution can close the gap and help survivors rebuild.
