A OK has created an online space for people who are or want to volunteer in actions related to combating COVID-19 to meet: the Vale Volunteer Network. Those who are already carrying out or want to carry out solidarity actions during the pandemic can register and participate. The initiative reinforces Vale's commitment to society and the series of actions the company is taking to combat COVID-19.
To participate or make your donation, simply access the website. It is possible to contribute to one of the actions already underway and also register as a volunteer to suggest new actions. New initiatives will be analyzed by the Vale Volunteers program and may be included in this menu of solidarity initiatives that seek to alleviate the effects of the pandemic. The platform is a meeting space, a kind of virtual square, to be cared for and improved through everyone's collaboration.
One of the initiatives registered with the Vale Volunteer Network is to collect basic food baskets for families living in vulnerable communities in the city of São Luís. Even before the website was launched, the volunteer committee responsible for this action had already collected 4.3 tons of food that benefited 900 families in 13 communities. With the Network, the idea is to contribute even more!
In addition to this, there are other initiatives on the platform such as donation of basic food baskets and hygiene kits in Pará, support for indigenous immigrants, food donations to Rio de Janeiro and Minas Gerais, support for the elderly, donation of financial resources and food and hygiene products in the Maré and Dona Marta favelas and much more!
