Fournitures médicales

Phase 1 :

Aide aux victimes de catastrophes

Global Empowerment Mission a répondu à la première phase, celle des secours en cas de catastrophe, en apportant une réponse immédiate à l'urgence civique pour les personnes en proie aux troubles au Venezuela, en partenariat avec Motorrad Angels et la Fondation I Love Venezuela.

Des milliers de personnes fuient le pays chaque jour, la plupart à pied, car le pays n'a pas été en mesure de fournir des services sociaux. En conséquence, les Vénézuéliens sont confrontés à de graves pénuries de nourriture et de médicaments, ainsi qu'à la propagation continue de maladies infectieuses.

Les infrastructures du Venezuela ont été mal entretenues, ce qui a récemment conduit à une série de pannes d'électricité dans tout le pays en mars 2019, laissant des millions de personnes sans électricité.

GEM Impact :

Organisé et facilité 3 voyages de mission
Fourniture d'une aide à plus de 2 400 réfugiés à Cucuta, en Colombie.
Fourniture de médicaments et d'équipements médicaux aux hôpitaux de Caracas, au Venezuela.
