According to the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, Typhoon Haiyan just may have been “the most powerful tropical cyclone to ever make landfall.”

Having caused over $200 million in damage, hip­-hop artist Game and pro poker player Dan Bilzerian have gotten together to contribute $10,000 through Game’s Robin Hood Project.

Here’s Game’s official statement, which was released via his Instagram account:

I know many of you might’ve heard about the typhoon in the Philippines by now where their death total continues to rise daily and is now roughly about 2,500 bodies found dead with an expected 100-150 more daily says their President Benigno Aquino,” Game said on the social media site. “This hurts my heart knowing that many of those amongst the dead are little children. Every now & again there is a tragedy that strikes somewhere around the world as the previous Thailand Tsunsmi, Haiti Earthquake & the most vicious here in the states “HURRICANE KATRINA”….. It is in these times where we as people of this world get the opportunity to unite with one another & give back, help aid, lend a hand, donate or just send prayers……. Well I am one of those people, so on behalf of @TheRobinHoodProject & my charitable partner @DanBilzerian we are donating $10,000 to help aid in the relief efforts to restore whatever possible in such a horrific natural disaster. My heart goes out to the families & friends of those who perished for only God knows I could not deal with the loss of any of mine. If there’s anyone out there who would like to donate anything…. UNICEF.org/Philippines or REDcross.org & to directly help the families go to www.worldvision.org/Haiyan now !!! I am sure they would appreciate any sum of money donated. Thanks for your help & follow @therobinhoodproject NOW as well as hashtag us at #TheRobinHoodProject to tell us about/keep up with other stories. Thank you – The Game.

If you are interested in contributing, you can do so at World Vision, Save the Children, or Red Cross, among many other relief aids.
