Published purpose
March 2019 - Severe food shortages and record hyperinflation have put buying food and medicine out of reach for many Venezuelans, and has heavily impacted their ability to meet basic needs. Over 3.3 million people have fled Venezuela since 2015, many of whom are currently residing in neighbouring countries such as Colombia, Ecuador and Peru. As the situation continues to deteriorate in Venezuela, vulnerable and crisis-affected populations are in need of critical assistance, including basic health assistance, food security and nutrition and water and sanitation. With GAC’s support, the organization helps provide life-saving assistance to vulnerable and communities affected by the Venezuela crisis. Project activities include: (1) providing basic health services, including vaccination, prenatal and postnatal care; (2) distributing essential medication and medical supplies to health facilities; and (3) providing nutritional support to vulnerable and at-risk people.
