AMAZON, CHIQUITANIA AND PANTANAL ARE BURNING

Donation protected
Dear friends and family around the world! Bolivia needs your help!!

THE AMAZON IS BURNING but its not only Brazil but Bolivia that is burning. What is happening in Bolivia, specifically in my department Santa Cruz has almost been erased from the narrative with very little coverage for what is happening there right now. Many communities in Bolivia have been completely destroyed by the raging wildfires and the fires have consumed everything on its way. And it's still burning. Bolivian firefighters are still trying to put out wildfires that have already burned more than 650,000 hectares (1.6 million acres) of tropical forest. The Chiquitania a region in the Santa Cruz Department in eastern Bolivia has been one of the most affected.

People around the world are mobilising but we still need more donations, we need protection suits for the firefighters volunteers, supplies for those who have lost their homes, we need medicine, helmets, medicine for veterinarians who are trying to safe some of the animals that have been burnt by the wildfires, they need respirators masks, forest fire packs, water tanks and support to all the people that has been displaced.  This people have lost entirely everything and I am calling all for your help. For those who know me you know that I love my country and It breaks my hurt that this place that I call home is now in ashes. But also this place is home of more than 500 animal species and has one of the richest biodiversities, This is the lung of our world! YOURS AND MINE!! SO I AM CALLING FOR YOUR HELP! 

To all my friends and communities around the world I call for your help to donate.  Every dollar, pound or euro counts! I also call for my friends to share this with your own communities to mobilise as many people as we can to help and to know of what is happening there. 

I will give an update of where and how this money is used as I am in contact with friends and family at home to keep track of what else is needed and were there is a need for more support. 

The work won't be over soon as the fires are still going, people are still being displaced and AFTER THE FIRE CEASES the job of reforestation will be the hardest. 

If you are in London please get in touch as this week we will be mobilising on an awareness campaign. 

THANK YOU AND LOVE TO YOU ALL!!!!
