Hugo Viana challenges Portuguese people to support the Firefighters: "Do you want to make a difference?"

Braga TV7 September 2026 at 14:54

Hugo Viana, a volunteer firefighter from Ponta da Barca, is away from operational activity due to health reasons, but continues to dedicate himself to the Portuguese firefighters' cause. Although he cannot act on the ground, the firefighter keeps the spirit of mission alive and seeks to continue making a difference in the community.

Through a new awareness message, Hugo Viana challenges Portuguese people to support fire brigades. The objective is to draw attention to the needs faced daily by these institutions, which frequently depend on the public's support to maintain their operations.

The campaign launched by the firefighter aims to raise awareness among citizens about the importance of contributing to the firefighters' work. Hugo Viana believes that each person can make a difference and that community support is essential to strengthen these entities.

This is not the first time Hugo Viana has stood out for his dedication to the humanitarian cause. The volunteer firefighter has been an active voice in promoting support for firefighters, even when his own health prevents him from participating directly in operations.
