George Clooney was on vacation at his Lake Como property with his wife Amal and their four-year-old twins Alexander and Ella when torrential rains hit this area of ​​northern Italy.

Several towns were severely affected, including Cernobbio and Laglio, where the actor's villa is located, who has helped the neighborhood.

“He came directly to the town hall and we walked around to see the extent of the damage.

He was really upset and wanted to help.

We are raising funds and I think he will use his own networks to help those who find themselves homeless, ”Laglio mayor Roberto Pozzi told The

Times

.

Rebuild everything

The heavy rains caused mudslides that rolled down the mountain, taking with them debris that destroyed many homes.

Sixty people had to be evacuated.

George Clooney was sealed off at his home, in the Villa Oleandra bought in 2002 in Laglio, with his family during the disaster.

He is ready to put all the necessary efforts to rebuild the region.

“It's much worse than I thought.

In Cernobbio, the situation is serious.

In Laglio, it's even worse.

I spoke to the mayor.

It's a lot of work and it's going to cost millions of dollars, but the city is strong.

She will get up and come back better than before, ”said the actor on Rai 1's local channel, Tg1.
