The floods in Rio Grande do Sul have made international news and have touched the hearts of those living outside Brazil. As a result, there is a significant number of people in the United States and other countries wanting to send help.
If you are one of them, know that Azul Airlines will transport donations of certain items from the United States to Rio Grande do Sul.
This is a very important initiative since donating products often faces the bureaucracy of customs both in the United States and Brazil, leaving those living outside Brazil with only the option to donate money. However, Azul has received authorization from the Federal Police to transport certain donated goods from those living in the United States.
Not just any type of goods can be donated. There are specific items that the company will be able to transport. They are:
• Personal hygiene items
• Disposable diapers
• Clothing
• Bed, table, and bath linens
These products must be delivered to:
• Azul Check-in FLL
• DUX Forwarding Corp.
10205 NW 19th Street – Suite 100, Doral FL – 333172
Always seek reliable sources when making donations. If the donation consists of goods, it may never reach Brazil if the entry of these products is not authorized.
