Awapatent supports rescue actions for refugees in the Mediterranean Sea

Awapatent has decided to donate 50,000 SEK (approx. 5,000 Euro) to the medical humanitarian organization “Médecins Sans Frontières” (MSF) to support their rescue actions for refugees in the Mediterranean Sea. At the moment, MSF has three boats with medical teams on site in order to save the lives of people in distress at sea and to give them medical care.

Up to August MSF has helped more than 12,000 refugees in the Mediterranean Sea.

In addition to their rescue work in the Mediterranean Sea MSF also assists with medical care for those refugees who arrive in the southern parts of Europe, for example Italy, Serbia and Greece.
