Altri and The Navigator Company have decided to contribute half a million Euros to the special fund to support civil society organisations in the region of Pedrógão Grande, set up by the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation.

A further half a million Euros will be invested by the two forestry companies to restore hillsides, water lines and forest infrastructures in the areas affected by fires, in accordance with a technical plan stipulating 12 initiatives. The companies will also send their teams out to provide specialist support.

This contribution is aimed at minimising the consequences of the fires and of the tragedy that affected the counties of Pedrógão Grande, Figueiró dos Vinhos and Castanheira de Pêra.
