There will be an opportunity to donate to  Rigul Trust which is currently working to raise funds for a nunnery that was completely devastated in the earthquake in a remote region of Nepal. The nuns who survived are being temporarily sheltered in a warehouse in Kathmandu and are in need of food, medical care and a permanent home.
Rigul Trust is Rinpoche's Charity that helps to support his monastery in Eastern Tibet where young people are fed, educated, and given medical care by a small team of doctors, nurses and teachers who depend on the generosity of donors for all their income.

Essential Summercamp Information

This year summercamp in Portugal will be dedicated to ngondro practice.  The whole group will accumulate the recitations and prostrations altogether, combining the totals:

"This Summer we will be performing them all together with Rinpoche and getting, as individual benefit, the sum of the numbers accumulated by all".

You will need to bring some supporting texts, mandala plates, rice etc, and all this and other travel information is on the Bodhicharya Portugal Website.
