The Southern region in Brazil is now under water. It means 150,000 people lost their homes. I saw a two-month-old baby being rescued by a row boat. You and I have no idea of the dimension of this tragedy. Almost 100 deaths, bridges have fallen apart. The international airport is closed and under water.
There’s been efforts from all over the country gathering clothes, higiene products, shoes, water, food to assist the victims. We need your help. That1s why we Brazilians who live abroad use our voice to cry for help.
