Support for Brazil Flood Victims

Donation protected
Hello, my name is Adriana, and I am deeply saddened to see my home state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, facing unprecedented devastation. Born and raised in this resilient community, I currently live abroad and am reaching out for your support to aid those impacted by the worst natural disaster our state has ever seen.

In the past couple of weeks, torrential rains have caused rivers to overflow, leading to severe flooding that has submerged entire neighborhoods, destroyed bridges, and collapsed dams. The current statistics are harsh: 85 people have died, 134 are missing, and 339 are injured. Over 1.1 million individuals have been affected, with 201.5 thousand left homeless. Additionally, 170 thousand homes are without energy, and 750 thousand people are without access to clean water. As officials reach areas previously inaccessible, we expect these numbers, particularly the death toll, to rise significantly.

The impact on animal life has been catastrophic as well. Hundreds of thousands of pets and street animals are in need of rescue and medical attention. Many have been left stranded, suffering, or have perished due to the overwhelming conditions. I want to ensure they receive the care and shelter they urgently require.

Every contribution makes a significant difference—just $1 is over R$5 due to the exchange rate, meaning your generosity extends even further. We are aiming to raise $10,000USD, which will provide substantial relief to many families and animals in distress.

I'm managing this fundraiser personally and ensure that all funds will go directly to reputable organizations or directly to those in need. Please join me in this cause to save lives, rescue our people, and help them rebuild. If you cannot donate, sharing this message is also incredibly helpful.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for any support you can offer. Please keep the people of South Brazil in your prayers and thoughts.
