The Fundación Madrina has launched a new stage of its emergency response this Friday to assist municipalities affected by forest fires in the Community of Madrid.

Following an initial phase focused on the urgent distribution of food and essential goods, the organization has activated the SOS Incendios Reconstrucción program. This initiative aims to establish direct collaboration with local councils in the affected areas to assess the specific needs of each town.
The action plan includes providing medical coverage, psychological support, and legal advice for families who have lost their belongings. During the initial deployment, the entity had already mobilized vehicles with basic products, such as baby formula, hygiene items, and strollers, destined for shelters in Madrid and neighboring provinces.
To manage aid requests, the foundation has enabled a specific section on its website and maintains the MadrinaSOS telephone line. Through these channels, both individuals and local corporations can request support for transport, appliances, baby supplies, or professional assistance.
The organization has called for citizen and corporate collaboration to continue collecting non-perishable food, clothing, medicine, and other basic items, amid concerns over the emotional impact that the evacuations are having on children.
