In recent days, the state of Rio Grande do Sul in Southern Brazil has been grappling with historic and devastating floods with additional rainfall expected. This catastrophic event has tragically claimed the lives of at least 90 individuals, with over 130 people missing, and has left 155,000 homeless. Amidst this disaster, our own FuelTech family has been severely impacted. The relentless floodwaters have inundated our headquarters in Porto Alegre, affecting all 200 of our dedicated employees. Homes have been submerged, and many of our team members and their families have lost everything they own.
As our community faces this overwhelming crisis, we have initiated a campaign to support our FuelTech employees and their families during these harrowing times. While we are also dealing with damages to our new headquarters, our priority is firmly on aiding our employees, who are at the heart of our operations and success.
We are reaching out to friends, partners, and the global community to join us in this critical effort. Your donations can provide essential relief such as clean water, food, clothing, and shelter to those who have been suddenly displaced. More than that, your support will help us reconstruct homes and restore the lives of our FuelTech family members. 100% of the donations received will go directly to our employees and their families.
Here’s how you can help:
Donate: Every contribution, big or small, makes a difference. Visit our donation page. You may also add a donation to any purchase made from the FuelTech USA website during checkout.
Spread the Word: Share our message across your social media platforms, within your networks, and beyond. The more people who know about our plight, the more help we can receive.
Stay Informed: Follow our updates to see how your contributions are making an impact and for more ways you can help in the future.
The road to recovery will be long and challenging, but with your support, we can make it a little easier for those affected. Together, we can rebuild lives and restore hope to our FuelTech family. We are immensely grateful for any support you can provide during this difficult time.
Thank you for standing with us.
