Fundraising for an emergency
Direct your fundraising where it’s needed most
Earthquakes, floods, famine, conflict, storms can strike anywhere, anytime, and impact the poor and vulnerable hardest.
Venezuela Earthquake
On the evening of 24 June 2026, two major earthquakes, measuring 7.2 and 7.5, struck northern Venezuela within minutes of each other.
The impact was felt across the capital, Caracas, and throughout central and coastal regions. Buildings, homes and infrastructure have collapsed and been severely damaged, and there has been widespread disruption to essential services.
Rescue efforts are slow, hampered by damaged infrastructure and limited resources. So far 1,700 people are confirmed dead, with tens of thousands still missing.
But with your help, we can provide emergency shelter, food, clean water, and care to those most affected.
Every donation will support Caritas partners on the ground to respond quickly and reach people in urgent need.
