During 2020, Argentina has suffered countless fires throughout the country. According to reports from the ministry of environment, approximately 1 million acres were burned. For this reason, from Messengers of Peace, we want to look for solutions to deal with this major problem because we consider it´s crucial to promote sustainable development and take care of the environment.
Messengers of Peace is working with Firefighters Foundation to provide them with the necessary equipment so that they can carry out their daily work (“fire-break” generation and the subsequent cleaning of the area to avoid new fires) in the 14 provinces where forests are burning. We collaborate with this organization to guarantee that every firefighter is in physical and mental conditions to develop their task.
Firefighters Foundation generates a support system for firemen around the country, and their mission is to create a safer society. That is why from Messengers we find it vital to accompany and offer the necessary resources so they can fulfill this mission.
Thanks to the support of our donors, funds raised will be allocated to provide the equipment that firefighter’s need, so they keep doing their courageous work, so essential to our society.
