The Philippines and Vietnam face a grim path to recovery in the wake of Typhoon Haiyan, one of the strongest storms in recorded history, which hit the Philippines on November 8th, killing over 2,300 people and leaving over 673,000 homeless.

People around the world are creating campaigns on Indiegogo to generate funds and build support for the recovery effort. Here’s a small sampling of the many campaigns going on now:
