The project will provide financial aid for the population affected by the earthquake in Venezuela. The aid is delivered through our Humanitarian Card, restricted exclusively to food and health-related purchases, reestablishing dignity of choice for the recipients while also avoiding economic crashes to the local markets by not flooding them with material food donations.
A 7.5 magnitude earthquake hit Venezuela this week. There are hundreds of deaths, thousands of injured and hundreds of thousands affected.
Through our tried-and-true Humanitarian Card we will, along with the International Federation of Red Cross and the Venezuelan Red Cross, aid those affected directly and indirectly. This aid reestablishes the dignity of choice for those affected, while also avoiding local market crashes by stimulating the local economy and not flooding it with a high influx of material food and water donations.
With the dignity of choice, families can decide how and what to budget on, and provide for their loved ones for the needed duration of the displacement. This reduces stress-inducing factors, reestablishes the sense of community, normalcy and belonging, and allows for more agile rebuilding, as well as mitigating community trauma.
