This hashtag is trending in twitter at the moment. Why? There’s been unusual rains at the north of the country. Why is it unusual? It is summer time here.
Rivers are getting out, rain is getting harder, weird big clouds are on top of the sunniest cities and water and mud are taking over cities destroying it all without mercy.
This is real. This is happening.
It is terrifying.
Yeah I know we are not France. But we are dying right now
I don’t really follow hashtags or social media trends, but I’m shocked I haven’t seen this on a major news outlet. Is there anything we can do to help?
Yes. This is the GoFundMe link for one of the cities that’s being affected up north of the country: https://www.gofundme.com/3ihpc7c
Also if you’re local or you know of someone who will come to Peru soon, they’re accepting clothes and food for donations
Alright guys, y'all know what to do. Donate if you can, but reblog and spread the word either way. Mainstream media here in the States isn’t covering this much if at all. These people need help.
Thank you for spreading the word. Really 😔

Thank you for the sources.
I didn’t think about that since I haven’t seen international pages talking about what’s happening here.
