Every day, more Venezuelans leave their homes to start a new life in other countries, Colombia being the closest and sharing the same language, has become the first option for refuge. These refugees are unable to cross into Colombia due to insufficient immigration documents, lack of food, money and resources.
Thanks to each of our faithful donors through GlobalGiving we have sent a team of volunteers to one of the refugee camps located on the border between Colombia and Venezuela. We have delivered boxes of food, water and other supplies. Funds raised through GlobalGiving will continue to be used to help refugees in border towns and assist refugees in Colombia.
Your contribution to South American Initiative makes the expansion of this project a reality and increases the amount of supplies available to Venezuelan refugees. Thousands of refugees will benefit from your generous donations.
Thanks to all donors of GlobalGiving for supporting our cause. The information is reflective of GlobalGiving campaign Venezuelan Refugee Fund.
