What is DANA Helping Hands
An ambitious project, funded with European Union funds, to contribute over 36 months to the populations of the Valencian Community affected by the DANA of October 29, 2024.
The DANA HH proposal is an Intervention Plan through 19 volunteering projects for the recovery of affected areas. We seek to foster collaboration between volunteers, organizations and the local community.
In other words, we join forces to address the most urgent needs, help people recover their quality of life and generate sustainable change in the social fabric.
Our initiative contributes to material recovery, to community strengthening and to raising awareness about the effects of natural disasters. Thanks to the synergy between local and international partners, we seek to restore hope, improve the quality of life of those affected and establish a replicable model for future climate crises.
