EMERGENCY FUND
Wars, floods, earthquakes, cyclones, epidemics, and conflicts have, in recent years, become distressingly frequent occurrences in our daily lives. This surge in humanitarian crises compels us to respond urgently with emergency appeals, highlighting the pressing need for intervention and support. We have faced the challenges of the most serious humanitarian emergencies on our planet, offering relief to affected communities and working to help them rebuild their daily lives. Even in humanitarian emergencies, our mission remains steadfast: to ensure access to education and prevent children and youth, already in a very vulnerable position, from seeing their futures put on hold. In times of crisis, the risk of educational pathways being disrupted is particularly high, but we are actively working to prevent this from happening. Every effort is geared toward preserving the basic right to school, providing young people with tools to face challenges and build a better future.
Brazil Flood Crisis.
Donate now to support the victims
Donate now to support the victims The floods that ravaged Brazil, especially the state of Rio Grande do Sul, in May and June were both tragic and devastating. Over 150 lives were lost, and 580,000 people were displaced from their homes. In response to this crisis, the La Salle community quickly came together to offer support to those who had lost everything.
Our pastoral center in Canoas was swiftly converted into a reception center, providing shelter and basic necessities to displaced individuals. With the waters now receding and schools reopening, our mission has shifted to helping these families safely return to their homes. We are committed to assisting with necessary renovations and providing essential resources to help them rebuild their lives with dignity and hope.
