Pope Francisescu has donated 100,000 euros to Albania, following the strong earthquake that hit Albania's northern coast in the Durres town area.
So far there are dozens of victims and hundreds of injuries. The quake left behind major damage, collapse of buildings and hundreds of homeless people and was felt in other areas of Albania and the Adriatic coast.
Pope Francisescu has decided to send an initial contribution of 100,000 euros, through Dickaster for the Human Intergral Development Service, to help the population in this immediate emergency phase.
Thus, the Holy Father wants to express his spiritual closeness and fatherly support to people and territories. The amount will be used, in the diocese affected by the earthquake, in acts of rescue and assistance, in connection with Apostolic Nunciature in Albania”, the report said.
