Embrace Rio Grande do Sul - Brazil

Donation protected
Hello, my name is Ana Paula Brasil, I'm Brazilian from Rio Grande do Sul. I wanted to let to you know about the devastating situation that has unfolded in my hometown in Brazil, specifically in the province of Rio Grande do Sul. I'm not sure if you're aware, but our province is made up of 497 cities, and recently, storms have wreaked havoc on over 426 of these cities.
The storms have caused widespread destruction, including landslides, destroyed roads, collapsed bridges, power outages, and water cuts. As a result, more than a millions of people are currently without access to basic necessities such as drinking water and food. These alarming statistics were reported by Brazil's civil defence agency just yesterday.
In light of this crisis, I have taken the initiative to start a campaign to provide quilts to the survivors. One of the pressing concerns is the upcoming winter season, which will further exacerbate the challenges faced by the affected population. We need fabrics, batting, threads, wide back. Our goal is to create quilts for the survivors, providing them with warmth and comfort during these difficult times. The need for quilts is immense, and we are aiming to produce thousands of them.
Now, I need your help if you could be able to donate quilts (any size), fabric, batting, thread or a monetary donation to provide material to make quilts.Any of the above will be appreciate. Shipping the quilts to Brazil is not a concern, because the Vine Church working to us figure out the logistics to shipping to Brazil.
I believe that together, we can make a significant impact in the lives of those affected by this disaster. The quilts will not only provide physical warmth but also serve as a symbol of solidarity, compassion, love and support from across the globe.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to your response and the possibility of working together to bring relief to the people of Rio Grande do Sul.
