Within hours of the earthquake, All Hands & Hearts mobilized to Pereira, working alongside local authorities and first responders to identify urgent needs.

Communities in western Colombia are facing the immediate impacts of a powerful 7.4-magnitude earthquake. Search-and-rescue teams are working around the clock to reach people who may be trapped beneath collapsed buildings, while damage to homes and critical infrastructure is creating urgent needs. First responders and affected families need equipment, supplies and other essential support as rescue and relief efforts continue.
Within hours of the earthquake, All Hands & Hearts mobilized to Pereira, delivering tools and equipment to support search-and-rescue operations. Working alongside local authorities and partners, we are identifying evolving needs and can provide food, water, hygiene kits, tarps, blankets, PPE and other essentials. Our flexible approach allows us to adapt quickly and direct support where communities need it most.
Emergency response is the first step on a longer path to recovery. As immediate needs stabilize, All Hands & Hearts can work alongside communities on longer-term priorities, including safe shelter and water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH). By repairing damaged homes, improving access to safe water and sanitation, and responding to locally identified needs, we can help families build a safer, more resilient recovery.
