Over 1,700 people are dead and 3,000 injured after two powerful earthquakes struck Venezuela. The 7.2- and 7.5-magnitude quakes collapsed buildings, leaving people trapped inside. In the midst of the rubble Convoy of Hope is bringing immediate relief and help to survivors. Convoy of Hope is on the ground providing life-sustaining immediate relief, including food and water from mobile kitchens.
Thousands of people were stranded overnight without shelter. They are sleeping in the streets or in cars, terrified of weakened buildings that could crumble at any moment from aftershocks. The earthquakes in Venezuela have left 1.8 million people - including 680,000 children - in desperate need of humanitarian aid, according to the United Nations.

With immediate, life-sustaining aid, including hot meals from mobile kitchens, families are receiving encouragement that they are not facing this alone.

In the middle of the devastation, Convoy of Hope is actively providing critical relief to survivors.
