Petropolis Mudslides - Help the recovery in Brazil
Donation protected
On Tuesday, February 15, 2022, Petropolis received the equivalent of 1 month worth of rain in only 4 hours. Absolutely destroying this charming, very populated, town in the mountains of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
The catastrophic rain caused historic flooding and mudslides, causing the loss of lives, homes, and hundreds of missing people and pets.
The death toll has surpassed 100 and is rising quickly.
My family and I are safe and are on the ground assisting with recovery and local donations. However, until now, it has been difficult for people outside of Brazil to help if they wanted to.
Now, with a simple click, you can make a serious impact on the recovery process here in Petropolis.
Your donation will be used to directly help people who are in need, by going towards the following:
Clean water
Hygiene kits
Baby formula and milk
Diapers
Food kitchens
Mattresses
Furniture
Clothing and more
At the current conversion rate, $1 is more than 5x the Brazilian Real. That means your donation can go very far. Even a $5 donation can feed a family, so please, if you can, anything is appreciated.
And of course, as always, send prayers.
I will be documenting everything in real-time on my Instagram, feel free to follow along and offer support there as well. https://www.instagram.com/chrisdhassan/
