       Taiwan Flood and Typhoon Relief 88 Free Concerts & Auction Nights

    On August 8, 2009, Taiwan suffered from the hit of Typhoon Morakot, which caused a great loss of lives and damage. This was the worst typhoon to hit Taiwan in half a century and it hit the island's southern and eastern areas, dumped more than 80 inches of rain on the island and stranded thousands of villagers in mountainous areas.
