Tia Lupe needs our help in Venezuela

Donation protected
Tia Lupe is one of the kindest people I have ever met. When my grandma died, my mother was only 1 year-old, and as her older sister, she became her surrogate mother. She’s not just an incredible sister or a loving aunt, she is an ANGEL: she has five children who adore her and she was also a foster mom to many others. She made clothes, and got shoes and toys for hundreds of underprivileged children in Merida, Venezuela. Quite simply, she’s always helped everyone who has asked for help.


Today, she needs our help. She lives in Venezuela, a country that has been ravaged by inflation, ridden with daily power outages, and plagued with a humanitarian crisis


Less than two weeks ago, Tia Lupe started having abdominal pain and inflammation. She became very weak. Due to the weakness, physicians have not been able to to perform a tomography to determine the source of her ailment. So she needs to undergo an emergency surgery.


She was admitted to a hospital in Maracaibo, Venezuela, that has no backup power and their ICU is not functioning. This makes it impossible for doctors there to perform surgery on her. We need to transfer to a clinic with its own power plant and a functioning ICU for an emergency surgery, and to admit her there, we need to make a deposit and later on to pay for surgery, medication, etc.


Due to the humanitarian crisis in Venezuela, medicine and medical care is extremely expensive, coveted and hard to find.


Please help us find out what is happening to Tia Lupe, by giving anything you might have to spare.
