Global Aider Incorporated is organizing this fundraiser
Devastating floods and landslides caused by heavy storms in the northern Italian region of Emilia-Romagna have claimed thirteen lives and left thousands homeless. In a heartbreaking video shared on social media, the voices of people trapped in their homes in Faenza, a city in Ravenna province, could be heard shouting for help as others also sought refuge on their roofs.
3,000 people were evacuated from Bologna, 5,000 from Faenza, and another 5,000 from Ravenna.
Homes have been completely swept away.
The crisis in the region is far from over, as Italy’s civil protection agency says there could be worse to come. "The rainfall is not over; it will continue for several hours.
Lives have been lost, homes have been washed away, people have lost most or all of their possessions and cherished memories, businesses have been affected, and the road to recovery will be a very long one.
Global Aider Incorporated with the help of our implementing partners, volunteers, trained relief professionals, and our large network of partner charities will work tirelessly to provide aid both directly and indirectly to families, individuals, and businesses affected by this disaster.
Funds will be channeled into supporting victims with makeshift accommodations, food, water, medical kits, hygiene products, long-term community rebuilding, and small business aid, if applicable.
