Hydro announced the company has donated BRL 5 million more to support the construction and maintenance of field hospitals in the Brazilian state for Covid-19 treatment. The hospitals will have 240 new beds to combat the pandemic in the region.
Hydro has signed an agreement with the government of the state of Pará to make a second donation. The donation of BRL 5 million adds to BRL 5 million already donated by the company. This will help in the fight against the coronavirus in the municipalities where the company operates.

"In addition to initiatives to protect our employees and contractors, we are joining the efforts to prevent and combat the virus, planning our actions through dialogue with local authorities and communities, supporting the main needs at this time," said John Thuestad, Executive Vice President for Bauxite & Alumina in Hydro.
In April, Hydro signed an agreement with the government of Pará to donate BRL 5 million to install four campaign hospitals in the capital Belém and the cities of Marabá, Santarém and Breves, on the island of Marajó.
The company has also made donations to the cities of Itu and Utinga, in São Paulo, and Tubarão, in Santa Catarina, where its Extruded Solutions operations are located.
