Czech humanitarian organizations and foundations have published the aggregate results of the impact of the aid provided after the tornado that struck South Moravia five years ago. According to their own figures, they provided at least CZK 1,312,513,046 to address the consequences of the disaster. The money was used for immediate humanitarian and psychosocial aid, support for families, interventions in the area of community life, and the restoration of public space. Preparatory measures for further potential disasters were also taken. Thanks to the coordination of the charitable sector, which was unprecedented in response to the impacts of the tornado, the money was disbursed quickly and efficiently. The close cooperation that the organizations tried out after the tornado was later repeated in coordinating aid during floods and in other crises.
