Big fire in Valparaiso

Guys, a giant fire has destroyed a big part of my city, Valparaiso, Chile. Fortunately neither I nor my family and friends were affected, but I'm in a huge pain and sadness because of the thousands of people that have lost not just their houses but everything that was inside them. An entire life of effort and sacrifice destroyed in just a few minutes. The blaze has killed 12 people, injured 500, destroyed 2,000 homes and forced 10,000 people to evacuate. The fire stopped was put out last night, and it had blazed for lasted 3 days.

Everyone who has not been affected is helping, removing rubble, rescuing pets (I have found lots of burned dogs and carried them to the volunteer vets) there are many others collecting clothes, food, bottled water, etc.
It's amazing how everybody wants to help, I know that we're going to forge ahead, I'm helping every day in whatever where ever I can to restore hope and happiness in to my people.
