Help Buenaventura Recover After the Earthquake

My name is Isabella Rivas, and I am a lawyer and National Youth Councilor representing Buenaventura, Colombia. Buenaventura is my territory, my home, and the community I have the honor of serving and representing.

Following the devastating earthquake that struck Colombia, families and communities in Buenaventura are facing a difficult and uncertain moment. I am organizing this fundraiser because I want to turn the solidarity of people around the world into direct, practical support for families who need it most.

The funds raised will be used specifically to purchase and deliver essential food and water, hygiene and cleaning supplies, basic emergency materials, and other immediate necessities identified by affected families and community leaders in Buenaventura. We will prioritize the people and communities experiencing the greatest need.

Every contribution matters. Whether you donate $5, $20, or $100, your support can become a tangible form of relief for a family in my territory.

I am asking you to stand with Buenaventura during this difficult moment. From our community to yours, thank you for helping us care for one another.

Transparency & Accountability: Every dollar raised will be used exclusively to purchase and deliver essential supplies and emergency assistance to affected families and communities in Buenaventura. We are committed to keeping our donors informed and will provide updates, receipts, and documentation showing how the funds are used and where the assistance is delivered.
