HOW TO HELP THOSE AFFECTED BY FLOODS IN SPAIN
The situation caused by the DANA with floods and inundations, that caused the loss of more than 200 human lives and affected a large part of the infrastructure in the Valencian Community, forced us to the cancellation of VESO.
The Spanish region is still wounded from this natural disaster and you can also help by donating to the many non-profit organisations that are doing everything they can to the recovery of this area. Some of these organisations are EREC, which has been working since the first days in the search for victims with dogs and water shortages, ASL, which is coordinating humanitarian aid and enabling spaces or Bombers pel Món, a Valencian NGO that since first day he has been coordinating volunteers and all kinds of help.
Oriol Inglada and Fhire Garcia are two of the many influencers and known faces from the scene that are giving a hand, raising awareness tanks to their profiles and channels.
