Greek shipowners and owner-related foundations have pledged more than €30m ($35m) to help their country cope with forest fires after a blaze that killed dozens near Athens last month.
The Stavros Niarchos Foundation (SNF) announced a €25m grant to the Greek fire department. The money will go towards training personnel as well as maintenance and procurement of new equipment.
The Onassis Foundation said it will donate €5m to cover victims’ immediate needs and reconstruction efforts.
