Help poor Venezuelans with food and education

Dear Supporter,

Thanks for your aid at Coromoto 2020 and for being part of the Food Delivery Programme in Florida. As we start the New Year, we would like to wish you health, hope and peace and to share how your generosity has made a meaningful difference.

Throughout 2025 and particularly during the holiday season, our partner and volunteers supported individuals and families facing food insecurity, economic hardship and social vulnerability across southern Florida. Rising living costs, unstable employment, and limited access to assistance are placing increasing pressure on many households, making timely food support especially important.

With your support, the programme achieved the following key outputs:

• 4,800 Food Parcels distributed across 10 outreach locations
• 570 Hot Meals prepared and delivered during targeted sessions
• 22,606 Kilograms of Food distributed
• 17,243 individuals reached, representing approximately 5,200 families
• Collaboration with 14 Partners Organisations, supported by dedicated volunteers

The programme reached a wide range of people, including migrants and asylum seekers, unhoused individuals, elderly citizens, women and children in protective services, foster families with hospitalised children and individuals in rehabilitation programmes. Support was provided based on need, regardless of background or immigration status.

Beyond these figures, the impact was deeply human. Families experienced reduced immediate hunger and financial pressure, allowing them to prioritise other basic needs such as housing, utilities and healthcare. For many, receiving food assistance offered reassurance and stability during periods of uncertainty.

Your support made this work possible and allowed us to reach thousands of people with care, respect and accountability. We are grateful to share this impact with you and to recognise your role in supporting individuals and families when it mattered most.

With Sincere appreciation,

Coromoto 2020

We look back with immense gratitude and warmth on the special fundraising event that took place on Thursday, 25th September. It was more than just a gathering; it was a powerful night of connection, celebration, and support for Venezuelan families in need of food and educational aid through the vital work of @coromoto2020.

The evening’s highlight was truly transformative: the 360° VR journey with @WhereIsNoa. Many attendees had the rare, deeply emotional chance to be transported back to Venezuela, instantly reconnecting with its breathtaking landscapes, vibrant culture, and, most importantly, the spirit of its people. This stunning virtual reality experience reflected Noa’s passion and deep love for Venezuelan land, its flavours, and the extraordinary warmth of its citizens, which shone through every scene.

A heartfelt thank you, Noa, for sharing your experiences and bringing them together so beautifully to show us how traveling alone in Venezuela was, in itself, a blessing.
