Mexico was hit by massive earthquakes and powerful aftershocks, killing hundreds of people, collapsing buildings and creating devastation in the capital and nearby cities. Homes, schools and hospitals were destroyed. This fund will provide urgent relief to impacted communities in Mexico through essential food, water, medication, and shelter. In addition, it will also support the long-term sustained work necessary for recovery. All donations will exclusively support earthquake recovery efforts.
The Mexico Rises fund was created with backing from Alfonso Cuarón’s production company, Esperanto Filmoj, along with Anonymous Content and Participant Media.
All donations will exclusively support earthquake recovery efforts by local vetted organizations including Sociedad Mexicana Pro Derechos de la Mujer, A.C. (Semillas).
