Hello everyone!

As you might have already seen in the news, a 7.9 earthquake hit the coast of Ecuador. Ecuador is an underdeveloped country and not used to face natural disasters like this one. Up until now casualties have ascended to 500 and +4000 people are hurt and suffering the damages of the aftermath.

The money will be used to aid the poor who have been left without a home and also to those in need of clothing, food, water, mattresses, blankets, and medicines. These are families that had very little before the earthquake and now have nothing with what to go on.

We are working TOGETHER with the Food Bank of Guayaquil (Banco de Alimentos Diakonía). This is a local institution that is certified by the Global Food Banking Network. Also, the Food Bank works directly with the Archdiocese of Guayaquil. All of your donations are audited by the firm Hansen-Holm. The Food Bank of Guayaquil will be showing how the money is being used.

We are active volunteers of the Food Bank. For the work that is being done already you can check their Facebook page, where they also share the links from where they will be receiving donations.

Anything you can donate is useful. EVERY DOLLAR COUNTS when helping others and we are so thankful for your donation. No amount is too small!

Our volunteers are working tirelessly to help! Donations are being received! But if you cannot be physically there to help you can help by donating some money that will be put to good use.
