Story
Over the last 24h the population of Central Portugal has been struck by horror. People in idyllic villages, animals in traditional farms, children in rivers - all have been struck by wildfires that so far have killed 62 people - some of which were desperately trying to flee the site and got burnt alive inside their cars. Our goal is to help these people through a network of the local authorities and charities, helping rebuild these communities and bring some peace to the ones who lost all at a blink of an eye.
Thank you for all your support!
