Massive international fundraising campaign underway to rebuild France’s Notre Dame

International fundraising campaign to rebuild Notre Dame Cathedral

An international fundraising campaign has been launched to rebuild Notre Dame Cathedral after the centuries-old landmark in the heart of Paris was devastated by fire.
Thousands of stunned Parisians and tourists took to the streets to watch in horror as a fire engulfed the iconic Notre Dame Cathedral, destroying its spire and a large part of the roof. After fire crews battled the blaze for hours, emergency services confirmed that the medieval cathedral’s two main rectangular towers had been “saved and preserved”.
French president Emmanuel Macron declared a national emergency after visiting the site and donors from across the world pledged funds to restore the 850-year-old Gothic masterpiece.
