Portugal is currently facing an exceptional sequence of severe storms and flooding. Following Storm Leonardo, authorities are warning that a new storm Marta — will intensify the risk again, and the coming weeks are expected to be particularly difficult for many families and local businesses. Official alerts remain active, and a “State of Calamity” has been extended across multiple municipalities.

We are launching an emergency relief fundraising campaign through Spark Foundation (sparkfoundation.pt) to support the regions most affected.

How your donation will be used:

All funds raised will be directed to urgent, practical support on the ground, including:

To ensure help reaches where it is most needed, we are in contact with local authorities and coordinating with multiple entities on the ground (including local partners/associations and relief organizations) so that donations can be translated into real, immediate support across the affected regions.

We will publish updates with transparency on allocations and impact (what was purchased, where it was delivered, and which local entities were supported).

Thank you for standing with Portugal at a time when help is genuinely needed. Any contribution — large or small — will make an immediate difference! ✨
