Alex Pereira Donates $100,000 In Response To Brazil Floods

Alex Pereira Donates $100,000 In Response To Brazil Floods

Alex Pereira is stepping up to support his home country of Brazil, in the wake of a devastating natural disaster.

Following severe flooding in Southern Brazil that has resulted in over 90 deaths and displaced more than 155,000 people, the UFC light heavyweight champion and former middleweight titleholder has taken action.

Specifically, Pereira has donated $100,000 to aid in the cleanup and support efforts!

In a statement to MMA HOJE, Pereira expressed his commitment to helping those affected by the disaster:

Many people from the south are in need there because of the rain and floods.

Recently I made a donation out of my own pocket.
No one helped me with anything.

Apart from the other donations I made, I donated $100,000 of food to people in need here in Brazil.

Pereira didn’t mention the direction/the charity that he donated the money for.
However, he isn’t stopping with the aforementioned amount either:

Now I’m also going to donate another $20,000 to the south for this tragedy that happened.
I do what I can.
