Dear friends of Eurojumelages Spain, especially our friends in the Valencia region,

 

It is with great dismay that I learnt of the devastating floods in the Valencia region. These images bring back memories of the great floods of 2021 in my region in Germany, where almost 150 people lost their lives. In these difficult times, I and the entire Board of Directors of Eurojumelages would like to express our deepest solidarity with the affected citizens, the rescue workers and all those who are endeavouring to restore normality.

The images of destruction and suffering are shocking and leave no one untouched. It is heartbreaking to see how many people have lost their homes, possessions and in some cases even loved ones. This natural disaster shows once again how vulnerable we all are and how important it is to stand together in such difficult times.

We would like to take this opportunity to pay tribute to the tireless efforts of the rescue workers, volunteers and organizations who are doing their best to help people in this crisis situation. Their commitment and dedication is admirable and deserves the highest recognition.

In view of the challenges facing the Valencia region, we would also like to offer our support. Be it through donations, volunteering or sharing information that could help those affected. Every contribution, no matter how small, can make a difference.

Let's work together to support the affected communities and help them get back on their feet. Solidarity and co-operation are of the utmost importance in these difficult times.

We send our best wishes and thoughts to all those affected by this tragedy. May you find the strength to overcome this difficult period.

For the Board of Directors of Eurojumelages

Peter Backes
