The event, led by Joseph Lobo, known as Djo Lobo, promises a night of music, dancing and unity, with the aim of demonstrating the strength and solidarity of the community in times of need. "It's time to come together and show our support for the families who have lost their homes and possessions," wrote João Alves on his social networks."Every contribution, no matter how small, will make a difference in the lives of these people."
