The summer of 2007 in Greece has been the worst year to date for fires raging out of control, destroying homes, livestock, trees and tragically lives. In the most recent and fiercest battle yet, fires have claimed at least 63 lives to date and the number is estimated to climb once the fires have been extinguished and homes are searched for those left behind. Many of whom perished protecting their livelihood or were simply too old or sick to evacuate. The terrain of many of these villages is not what we are accustomed to, and unless you have visited such areas, it may be difficult to imagine why this happened and the destruction so profound. Many are villages where people work and live off their land and their livestock. They are beautiful modest and picturesque villages built on the mountainous landscape surrounded by trees and fresh air and pure water.
But no more.
Now they are villages burned, charred and their people must attempt to rebuild, salvage and try to determine how they will go on living with no home, no belongings and no means of income now or for the future. Acres and acres of land used to cultivate, grow and sell products has been destroyed. Generations of olive trees, orchards, livestock and other means of livelihood completely gone. The long term effects of this ecological and financial disaster are devastating.
This website is offering a wristband that you can wear in pride as a supporter of this cause. 100% of the profits will go to benefit those who lost so much in these devastating fires.
Greece gave us so much. Its people, our people need our help. Please donate in any manner you feel is appropriate.
I also listed the wristbands on Ebay to generate more exposure, so yes that's me as well. If you want to buy via Ebay, please click HERE Thanks!
Note: I have received one email from someone who was concerned if this is a scam or a fraudulent, and I am going to answer it this way, NO WAY! That's crazy to say the least. To capitalize on other people suffering and death is inhumane, immoral and honestly sick.
I am a proud Greek that felt just sitting back and sending $100 bucks or so was not enough for these people.
Please feel free to call me with any questions or anyway we can generate more sales to help these people: 917-232-4131
