Donate to help us reach more children and families affected by Venezuela earthquakes

On Wednesday 24 June, two powerful earthquakes struck Venezuela just seconds apart, measuring 7.2 and 7.5 in magnitude. At least 1,430 people have died and more than 3,000 have been injured, with numbers likely to rise.

This is the strongest earthquake the country has experienced in over 100 years.

The impact has been widespread. In Caracas and the states of Aragua, Carabobo, Falcón, La Guaira and Miranda, homes, schools and hospitals have been badly damaged or destroyed.

UNICEF estimates that 1.8 million people, including 680,000 children, now need urgent help.

Please donate to help us reach more children in Venezuela.

 

How we are responding to the earthquakes in Venezuela

We have rapidly scaled up our emergency response. We are working closely with partners to assess needs and provide life-saving support.

20 tonnes of medical supplies, water and sanitation items have already arrived in Venezuela, with more on the way.

Our priority is to make sure children and families can access:

  • medical care, 
  • protection services, 
  • emotional support, 
  • safe water, 
  • hygiene items,
  • and education. 

Even before the earthquakes, nearly 4 million children in Venezuela needed humanitarian support. Many families were already struggling to access food, medicine and other essentials. This disaster is likely to push even more children into crisis.

Please donate to help us reach more children in Venezuela now.

How to help children in Venezuela?

The best way to help Venezuela and the children in crisis is by supporting our appeal.

We respond in moments of crisis, but we also stay for the long term, helping to build safer, healthier futures for children everywhere.

When you set up a regular donation, you become part of that life-changing work in helping protect the world’s most vulnerable children, today and for years to come.

A monthly donation to UNICEF today can make a life-saving difference to children. £10 a month could provide life-saving supplies like clean water and medical supplies to families in an emergency.

Donate today to provide life-saving support to children.

 

Venezuela earthquakes donation by phone

If you’re in the UK and would prefer to make a donation by phone, you can call our dedicated donation line: 0300 330 5699.

How will your Venezuela donation be used?

For the first 3 months, monthly donations made to the appeal will go towards funding our work to support children affected by the humanitarian crises in Venezuela, including the recent earthquakes. After that, donations will go to support our work around the world. Any Gift Aid claimed on donations made to this appeal will support UNICEF’s work around the world.

In the unlikely event that the funds raised exceed what’s needed for the Venezuela earthquakes appeal, we will direct any excess funds to support our work to help keep children safe and healthy around the world.
