The tragedy in Valencia, Spain, caused by the DANA (Depression Isolated at High Levels) has taken the neighboring country by storm and is even considered to be the worst flood in 75 years. In such a desolate scenario, any small gesture can make a difference.
Various organizations, such as the Spanish Red Cross (Cruz Roja) and the Valencia Food Bank, are accepting help, for example through crowdfunding platforms and/or online donations. That’s why we’ve decided to present a brief list of some of these solidarity alternatives.
