LATAM transports volunteers, veterinarians and supplies to support the “Pantanal em Chamas” campaign

Oct 05, 2020

The campaign was launched by LATAM’s partner, the NGO AMPARA Animal / AMPARA Silvestre; the institution is directly working on rescuing the animals affected by the fires in Mato Grosso

Through its Solidary Plane program, LATAM Airlines Brazil donated 30 airline tickets to Cuiabá for volunteers and veterinarians from the NGO AMPARA Animal. The company will transport supplies to the affected location free of charge and on demand. This initiative allows the animal rescue work carried out in Pantanal Mato-Grossense to be continued, as a response to the fires in the region, which started approximately two months ago.

The “Pantanal em Chamas” campaign was launched by the institution on September 1, in order to rescue and treat animals affected by forest fires.

LATAM and AMPARA Animal recently established a partnership. LATAM’s free supply transportation and airline ticket donation reaffirm the company’s commitment to supporting social causes, actively collaborating with its partner NGOs and their initiatives.
