Spain has faced the most severe flash
floods for centuries, leading to a death toll of over 200 people and leaving
dozens missing. TUI Care Foundation’s Fundraising appeal will work with local
partner organisations for social support of affected communities. To amplify
impact, TUI Care Foundation has pledged to match donations received, doubling
the support for those in need.
As devastating flash floods sweep through communities
in the region of Valencia and other parts of eastern Spain, families and
neighbourhoods are facing unimaginable challenges. In the aftermath of this
tragedy, where the death toll has already risen to more than 200 and many
remain missing, countless people have lost their homes, belongings, and sense
of security. To offer long term social support to affected communities, the TUI
Care Foundation has set up a fundraising appeal.
The fundraising appeal will support local communities
affected by the flash floods in Spain. Working closely with local partners on
the ground, the TUI Care Foundation will provide long-term social support to
help affected communities to recover.
Alexander Panczuk, Executive Director of the TUI Care
Foundation: "The flash floods in Spain have had a devastating impact on
local communities, resulting in tragic losses and damage. As we respond to this
situation, our fundraising appeal aims to provide essential long-term support
and assistance to those affected. By matching every donation, we can enhance
our collective efforts to help affected communities recover and rebuild –
ensuring they receive the necessary resources to overcome this difficult
situation."
Every euro or pound donated to the TUI Care
Foundation’s fundraising appeal will be directed to projects in Spain that
offer essential aid to flood victims. To amplify the impact, TUI Care
Foundation has pledged to match donations received, doubling the support for
those in need. So for each euro or pound contributed, the Foundation will add
an equal amount.
