Story
In recent days, Valencia has faced catastrophic flooding due to a severe storm system known as a DANA (Isolated Depression at High Levels). Torrential rains have overwhelmed the region, causing widespread flash floods that have left streets and neighborhoods submerged. Hundreds have tragically lost their lives, over 450,000 people have been affected, and thousands of families have been left homeless, facing unimaginable hardship. Homes, schools, and community structures have been severely damaged, and critical infrastructure is in disrepair, leaving residents struggling to access basic necessities.
While the people of Valencia have mobilized to support one another, the response from government agencies has been nonexistent, leaving volunteers to clear contaminated water and mud on their own. After days without official assistance, the situation has become critical, as stagnant floodwaters and sludge have become highly polluted, posing health risks for everyone involved. Urgent help is still needed to address these growing challenges.
The funds raised will be used to provide immediate relief to those most affected. This includes essential supplies such as food, clean water, clothing, and hygiene kits, as well as temporary shelter and bedding for displaced families. Additionally, funds will support the purchase of protective equipment and resources for the brave volunteers working in dangerous conditions, helping them continue their efforts safely to bring aid and restore the community.

Your donation will help restore stability and hope for those affected, ensuring they receive the essentials needed to rebuild their lives. We are working closely with local organizations and trusted community leaders to distribute the funds directly to those most in need, ensuring that every donation reaches the heart of the crisis.
