This week at GEM has been very special, as we`ve taken the time to honor the dedication and hard work of our volunteers. Their tireless efforts in organizing and delivering humanitarian aid and disaster relief globally are the heart and backbone of our organization. Yesterday, in line with International Volunteer Day, we extend our heartfelt appreciation to every volunteer across our global GEM hubs. Your contributions are the cornerstone of our success; we simply couldn`t achieve our goals without you. We are deeply grateful for the countless hours you have devoted, your remarkable kindness, and the empathy you spread worldwide. Your efforts are life-changing, bringing hope and support to those in dire need.
Today at GEM headquarters, we are thrilled to celebrate @hasbro 100th Anniversary. We`re immensely thankful they chose to spend their Global Day of Joy with us. Their generous donation and the assembly of gift bags, featuring toys they`ve kindly contributed, underscores the spirit of giving that aligns so deeply with our mission.

GEM Hawaii has partnered with Hawaii Department of Human Services and Airbnb to implement a new rental assistance program for survivors of the Maui Wildfires. The program is designed to help survivors who are not eligible to receive benefits from FEMA. There are still over 5000 survivors currently housed in hotel rooms that are in need of long-term stable housing. This $2.5M program is funded by the State of Hawaii and will offer immediate housing solutions by tapping into the short-term rental market for long-term stays. #GEM #Bstrong #GEMHawaii #maui #lahaina #wildfires @airbnb ...
Yesterday we were able to visit 6 Palestinian families that were able to escape Gaza into Egypt by chance or for medical reasons.
With earmarked funds from our Palestinian Civilian Fund, GEM MENA was able to support them along with many more in Egypt. Most have had their homes destroyed and shared photos with us. We spent almost 8 hours with them talking deeply and really getting to know them.
In addition, our trucks have entered Gaza and our aid is in the hands of our trusted partners @aneraorg and NO ONE ELSE. They are distributing today to ONLY civilians in desperate humanitarian situations. Special thanks to @urgent.projects for supporting Palestinians with an entire semi-truck of blankets.

So thankful to all of our incredible friends, supporters, team members and donors. This work is not easy and requires pure determination and perseverance. Please cherish what you have been given in this life. We can never know what tomorrow will bring us. Most of the people we help would have never imagined this could happen to them.

On November 16th, the GEM Europe team arrived in Iceland to support evacuees, and in anticipation for future volcanic activity. Since late October, Iceland has recorded over 20,000 earthquakes, with as many as 800 in a single day. The Mount Fagradalsfjall volcano is predicted to erupt, therefore forcing thousands of residents to evacuate. The GEM team is prepared to assist all those affected by this imminent disaster. #iceland #volcanoes #icelandvolcano @globalempowermentmissioneur ...
@bbcnews interview about the latest events taking place in Gaza. GEM founder @michaelcapponi is speaking alongside Suzanne who was just evacuated from the strip after being there since May 2023. Her and her sister decided to stay in Cairo sponsored by GEM and now and volunteering @globalempowermentmissionmena.
She explains how healing that is rather than just turning her back on what’s happening inside her homeland. They also elaborate on what GEM Bstrong is doing on the ground in the region with @aneraorg. @bethennyfrankel #palestinian #Gaza

@globalempowermentmissionlatam team is delivering aid to the rural communities living in the remote areas of Acapulco, Mexico.
The roads in the area are hardly accessible so the team has to reach the territory by passing the river in the mountains.

This is our @globalempowermentmissionmena regional branch on the main road towards the Sinai peninsula outside of Cairo, Egypt.
These supplies, along with earmarked only aid from a worldwide coalition of partners will be delivered to our trusted ground partners, @aneraorg inside Gaza at the Rafa Gate. Anera has been operating inside Gaza for over 40 years. We trust them explicitly.
We have set up a unique supply chain and ecosystem for continuous aid flow into Gaza. Again, this aid is only for Palestinian civilians who currently have no food, no water and no electricity. We don’t import staff, we build teams from the ground up in the country we operate in. This new partial team is made up of Palestinians and Egyptians. Two of our volunteers, just got out of Gaza and were there during the last 7 months. They have seen play by play everything that’s happened. They thought they were going to die every single minute for the last month. This gives us a clear viewpoint on the situation and understanding of needs.
We are calling out on our global network of partners to collaborate and help us fund local goods purchased in Egypt directly from food factories. That is the fastest and most efficient way of doing things.
You can clearly see that GEM aid goes directly into the hands of civilians in shelters.
This is the very tip of the iceberg in our supply. We will scale up exponentially.
Please visit our special earmarked campaign for Palestinian support on our link tree or email us at [email protected] to partner in funding local supplies from Egypt.

Maui Fires 3 Month update.
In the aftermath of the devastating wildfires in Lahaina, #Maui, GEM has been tirelessly working on the ground since day 2. GEM Hawaii has provided crucial assistance to survivors. We began by getting immediate aid to local hubs and distributing cash cards to survivors. GEM has now distributed nearly $500,000 in Bstrong cash cards.
By week two, we collaborated with @airbnb to secure short-term Airbnb bookings for over 1,200 survivors, offering them immediate lodging.
By week three, GEM established a housing case worker support office in Kahului which has processed nearly 1,000 housing applications. We distributed $250,000 in rent abatement checks to 109 families who secured long-term leases and assisted 220 families with Airbnb.org reservation renewals. This was made possible with staffing support from @sail.trilogy employees.
In week five, GEM opened the Westside Distribution Center in Kahana, distributing aid to 1,500-2,000 vehicles weekly and providing over 15,000 family care boxes since mid-September. Volunteers and partners like @MauiBrewingCo, @countyofmaui, @hfahawaii, and @MauiFoodBank played vital roles in this initiative. Support from volunteers equates to approximately $160k in labor costs savings.
GEM`s back-to-work tool program invested $135k in tools, aiding 94 tradesmen in resuming their work. Gratitude goes to donors @californiapools and @stableroadfoundation for their contributions.
Looking ahead, GEM finalized plans for the temporary Sacred Hearts School in Ka’anapali, accommodating 250 students (grades K-9) for the next three years. Additionally, in partnership with @LivingEarthSystems, we`ve commenced building tiny homes, set to be completed by the end of November, providing sustainable housing solutions for survivors.
Thank you for supporting our Hawaiian programs. #Hawaii #Maui @bethennyfrankel #Lahaina @edfreedman @mauigarrett

Our GEM USA West team distributed to over 200 tribal members at Cold Springs Rancheria, in Tollhouse CA, blessed the community with GEM food and necessities boxes, mattresses, @amazon Homegoods, @good360usa Backpacks filled with School Supplies, @redwingheritage Clothing and Boots, @myearthbreeze, Necessities from Mathew 25 Ministries, @thecorewater and @sprite @cencalfoodbank also made an impact by dropping off their Drought Food Boxes with fresh Fruits and Vegetables.
Our GEM USA West team, led by Elizabeth Jernberg, Director of West Coast Operations, dedicated an entire week to the Cold Springs Rancheria. The tribal elders instructed our GEM team on the traditional gathering of willows and berry shoots for basket-making. We had the honor of conversing with an elder named Phyllis, a basket weaver, who is imparting these traditions to future generations. Phyllis introduced us to their acorn mash tradition and explained that acorns and other berries comprised 50% of their diet, highlighting their roles not only as hunters but also as gatherers.
Our interaction with the vice chair, Curtis Lee, was enlightening, as we instantly recognized the heritage and culture they yearn to reclaim. It is encouraging to learn that the Cold Springs Rancheria is actively endeavoring to restore and conserve its culture, a sentiment echoed during our visit. Upon hearing Vice Chair Curtis Lee lament the absence of their sweat lodge for over 15 years, we discussed potential avenues to facilitate its return. Reconstructing a sweat lodge is a pivotal element of this cultural resurgence, serving not only as a location for purification, spiritual ceremonies, and community congregation but also as an emblem of cultural identity and continuity.
Such initiatives are vital for the preservation and rejuvenation of Indigenous cultures. It is inspiring to witness communities proactively working to safeguard their traditions and cultural identity.
