Contribute to help victims of the Pedrógão Grande tragedy

Written on 06/21/2017

Forest fires occur every summer in Portugal but the tragedy that struck the community of Pedrógão Grande in the centre of the country is unprecedented. Over 60 people lost their lives, many trapped in their cars when trying to flee from the flames.

This Just Giving page is a simple way for people, wherever they are in the world, to make a contribution to help rebuild these communities and bring some comfort to those who lost everything in the blink of an eye. The money raised will be sent to a network of local authorities and charities working in the area affected. Thank you for your support.
