An update from Christian Aid - Venezuela Earthquake Appeal
Thank you so much for your generous gift to the Venezuela Earthquake Appeal, whether from you personally, your church or community.
Your gift of £400.00 is saving lives and helping to bring hope for people in Venezuela.
The earthquake that struck Venezuela destroyed homes and left people in urgent need of drinking water, food and shelter. The situation continues to unfold and we will continue to keep you updated. Thanks to your generous gift, we're working through our local partners to respond to urgent needs, for families and people who are fighting for their very survival. Partners are working hard to get vital life-saving supplies swiftly to the people who need it most.
Together with the 14 other charities that make up the DEC, we’re launching a UK-wide appeal to meet the escalating needs of people fighting for their very survival.
Without dedicated supporters like you, work like this wouldn’t be possible. Thank you for your unswerving support and for standing with people facing devastation across communities in Venezuela.
We pray for comfort and protection for the people of Venezuela.
With sincere thanks,

Carlos Mejia Solano
Head of Impact, Christian Aid Latin America and Caribbean
