Transitex Social Responsibility – Together for Arganil In August and October 2017, several forest fires in Portugal killed more than 100 people, destroyed forests and left many people without a home. Transitex decided to do something and is now recovering a family’s house that was destroyed by the fire. This house was home to a couple of pensioners, António Agostinho and Sandra Silva. They are now living with a relative, since their home in no longer habitable. They are from the area of Arganil, in a rural region in the interior of the country, district of Coimbra, and lost their animals and crops to the fire. To help them, Transitex also needs your help. With the collaboration in the organization of this project of the ONG S.O.S Arganil (an organization completely devoted to find help to the people affected by the fires in this rural area), we are completing a process with several steps. A team of Transitex collaborators has already taken the debris out of the house and emptied it, and now the construction work, funded by us, has already begun. You can help us with donations of money or materials.
