#earthquake

i haven't seen many options for people outside to donate. easiest way is this fundraiser from the I Love Venezuela Foundation

you can also donate directly through zelle and binance to Organizacion Solo con Fe in barquisimeto, but !!! make sure to label it "donacion" so it can be correctly identified. everything will be used for relief in the affected zones.

lastly, Passagio is a Miami-based courier that's put a special fare of $4/lb for aid to be sent to venezuela. no profits will be made from this, that's strictly transportation costs. they're accepting: medicine, non-perishable food, hygiene products, clothing, essential supplies.

I'm really curious about this!! in aotearoa, every classroom I was in growing up had posters up on how to respond to an earthquake. "drop, cover, hold" was drilled into me from a very young age. I experienced a few growing up, but they were mild because I don't live in areas where they are more extreme. One of our major cities, christchurch/ōtautahi, gets hit by earthquakes very frequently. if you look at a global seismic hazard map, aotearoa is fully lit up in the colour indicating high hazard chance. wild!!!

Hello.....as you might've seen me post in the past days my country is going through one of the biggest tragedies it has ever experienced right now, having endured two consecutive earthquakes very recently and not being equipped to deal with the damage, my people need all the help possible.

So i made a little strawpage compiling helpful links that i've seen around in one place, they're a lot so have fun choosing. If you've ever liked anything i've made, please consider helping in any way you can whether economically or by sharing. I am unharmed but so many people are currently suffering and so many have lost everything and i don't like seeing people having to endure so much.
