Our island has been devasteted by a series of forest fires which have consumed Tenerife and Gran Canaria.

Many of my friends have been evacuated.

The fire continues to spread.

Please pray for everyone affected by the fires on both islands.

We need as much help as we can get to try and restore our burned islands back to the beautiful paradises they were before...

Please make a video response to show your support to all the residents and people affected by this disaster!
