Real Madrid, a prestigious Spanish soccer club, donated 1 million euros and 1.5 billion won for the victims of the heavy flood that swept the southeast of the country.
Real Madrid said in a statement that it had launched a fundraising campaign and that it would first donate 1 million euros for affected families in need of help in times of emergency.
Real Madrid's showdown with Valencia this weekend has been postponed due to flooding.
Spain's Football Association had earlier called for all games scheduled in the affected region to be postponed, and announced a minute's silence in this weekend's games meant to console the dead and stand in solidarity with the victims.
