I dont normally post things unrelated to tennis here but today I'm here to ask you all to please look at Venezuela. Yesterday, two very heavy earthquakes hit the coast zone, affecting mainly La Guaira and Caracas. The earthquake was so heavy it was felt even here in Colombia. But in La Guaira buildings collapsed in full, leaving thousands of people either dead, alive but under the rubbles and homeless and with no place to go. The officials of the government claimed this morning the number of deceased are only 160 people when in reality the number is much worse.
So please, take a second of your days to share the donation links to reliable sources like we love foundation, red cross international (dollars donation and banesco USA), world central kitchen and Caritas Venezuela and please, please, donate if you can. Even a dollar is a lot in such circumstances. Also please check if Venezuelans in your country are collecting aid to send things like clothing, baby formula or packed food.
if you're from the US please call your representatives and pressure them to aid Venezuela. Remember that this is a massive tragedy not only because of the earthquake but for the inability to act caused by years and years of corruption, dictatorship and an aggravated humanitarian crisis that is now just getting worse. This video explains the depth of the crisis well for english speakers.
you might think Venezuela is far away from you or your realities, but they are our brothers and are now in need. so please, put a hand in your heart and help.
