Cash beats shipped goods right now

Caracas's airport and the La Guaira port are damaged, so unsolicited goods can clog the response. The State Department and ground responders like GEM say cash lets teams buy exactly what's needed, locally and fast.

What your gift can do

  • $25 — clean water and hygiene supplies for a family
  • $50 — emergency first-aid and medications
  • $100 — shelter materials for a displaced household

Illustrative, based on what the listed relief orgs report needing. Give what you can.
