As our teams assess conditions on the ground, reports indicate widespread damage to homes, health facilities, water infrastructure, communications networks, and power systems. Entire neighborhoods remain without electricity. Phone lines are down. Families are struggling to contact loved ones.
Even before this disaster, nearly 8 million people across Venezuela were already in need of humanitarian aid due to an ongoing economic, health, and displacement crisis. Now, local health systems face even greater strain.
That’s why Project HOPE’s response will focus not only on immediate lifesaving needs, but also on helping communities recover in the weeks and months ahead. Drawing on our experience responding to major earthquakes in Türkiye, Syria, Haiti, Morocco, Myanmar, and Indonesia, our teams are prepared to deliver urgent relief with lasting impact.
Disasters like this do not end when the shaking stops. Families may lose loved ones, homes, access to medication, clean water, and their sense of safety overnight. Your emergency gift today can help Project HOPE respond to urgent needs in Venezuela while supporting our lifesaving work wherever the need is greatest around the world.
