Hello friends,

My name is Sixto Franco. My family is from Valencia, Spain, a region that has been devastated by the latest deadly storm and subsequent flooding of the river Turia Valley. This catastrophe has been especially damaging due to the lack of action from government and local officials. Their negligence has caused a lot of avoidable extreme damage and lives lost. Instead, Neighbors and fellow Spaniards have taken aid upon themselves, including cleaning debris from street, recovering dead bodies, providing food, water, equipment and care.

Please help me raise $3000 to send to the most needed over there. Funds will be donated to "Bombers del Mon" (firefighters of the world) a local firefighter organization funded in Valencia that have been the first responders to the crisis from day one. They have a first hand experience and knowledge of what is needed and how help needs to be distributed.

With all my heart, thank you.

Sixto Franco
