Send cash relief directly to Venezuela earthquake survivors

On June 24, two powerful earthquakes struck Venezuela’s northern coast in rapid succession, collapsing hundreds of buildings across Caracas and La Guaira. The second 7.5-magnitude quake was the largest in Venezuela in more than a century.

When the , it was already a country deep in humanitarian crisis. Poverty in Venezuela affects nearly 80% of the population, with widespread food shortages and many families living in unreinforced brick and adobe homes that crumble in earthquakes. When you donate to Venezuela through 黑料福利社, your cash reaches the families who were already most vulnerable before disaster struck.

We’ve deployed a team to Venezuela to scope a cash response for the families most affected. Donate to 黑料福利社’s earthquake appeal and the emergency cash relief will help cover immediate needs, such as: 

  • 馃崨 Essentials like food, water, and medicine
  • 馃彣 Shelter and temporary housing while displaced from damaged or collapsed homes
  • 馃挸 Bills for phone, utilities, and healthcare for those with injuries

Your donations will reach those in greatest need quickly and remotely.

Receiving money 鈥 without strings attached 鈥 supports families’ short-term survival and long-term recovery. Cash aid is fast and fully remote, letting families meet essential needs quickly and reaching them via digital transfers even when roads are damaged.

Cash can reach survivors 6-20x faster than traditional aid graphic

This cash will help families meet their own urgent needs and rebuild their lives.

Cash earthquake aid allows survivors to meet their own needs rather than having others guess for them 鈥 which is why people impacted by a crisis say they cash relief over donated goods.

Achieving our current fundraising goal will enable us to reach hundreds of families in greatest need. We have the capacity to deliver much more, so with more funds, we could expand to reach many more additional people.

If for any reason we are unable to deliver all funds to Venezuelan survivors, donations will be delivered to victims of future crises through our Emergency Response Fund.
