BACKGROUND:

Forest fires erupted in the Ñuble and Bío Bío regions in central and southern Chile, leaving approximately 1,500 people without homes. A state of catastrophe has been declared and thousands of acres of precious land have been destroyed. The Fire Brigades in Chile are working hard at containing the fires.

Bomberos de Chile (Fire Department) is a voluntary organisation. Firefighters give their time and risk their lives without receiving a wage. Their expenses are partly funded by the state, but they usually rely on fundraisers they organise (Bingos, raffles, events).

**Lineup to be added soon!
