NEPAL–TIBET FLASH FLOOD
GEM Asia is deploying ground teams to respond to the catastrophic flash flood has struck the remote Himalayan border region between Nepal and Tibet, leaving widespread devastation and triggering major search-and-rescue operations.
A massive surge of water, mud, rock, ice and debris tore through communities along the Bhote Koshi and Trishuli river systems, destroying homes and critical infrastructure and cutting off communities across the mountainous region.
According to current reports:
• More than 150 people have been reported dead across Nepal and Tibet, with casualty figures continuing to rise.
• Hundreds remain missing, including foreign tourists and pilgrims traveling through the region.
• The Trishuli River reportedly surged by as much as 30 feet in approximately 30 minutes at one monitoring location.
• At least 19 bridges and approximately 25 miles of roadway have reportedly been swept away.
• Roads, communications, electrical infrastructure and hydropower facilities have sustained significant damage.
• Rescue operations remain extremely difficult due to destroyed access routes, mountainous terrain and isolated communities.
Preliminary scientific assessments indicate the disaster may have been triggered by a massive ice-and-rock avalanche high in the Himalayas, which entered a tributary of the Bhote Koshi and generated a devastating downstream flood wave.
Authorities are also closely monitoring a potential remaining upstream blockage, raising concerns about the possibility of additional flooding.
The full scale of this disaster is still unfolding. More updates to follow as verified information becomes available. @globalempowermentmissionasia Photos by: @reuters @apnews @nytimes

GEM HQ Capacity Update | Miami-Dade County Only
These aerial views show our response infrastructure in Miami-Dade County. A special thanks to our long-time warehousing partner @prologis for their continued support in providing critical warehouse space that makes rapid response possible. And to Mayor @christifraga and the @cityofdoral.
Today, GEM is operating more than 655,000 square feet of warehouse space in Miami-Dade alone, all currently filled with life-saving aid, made possible by the extraordinary generosity of our donors, corporate partners and diaspora. To put this in perspective, this is roughly the equivalent of five full-size Costco warehouses, all dedicated to only humanitarian relief in our region.
This is the kind of scale and infrastructure that allows us to respond decisively and mobilize what we know will become the largest humanitarian response in Venezuela’s history. Our HQ infrastructure is always ready and able to respond to crises immediately.
Swipe through to see our capacity in action. GEM also operates multiple regional branches in the United States and globally across 4 continents. Our total global capacity nears 875,000 sq ft. This ensures we are ready and prepositioned when and where disaster strikes. @miamidadeem @miamidadecounty #infastructure #capacity #warehousing @globalempowermentmission
Today marks two months since GEM began serving survivors of the catastrophic twin earthquakes in Venezuela.
What you’re looking at is the largest private/public humanitarian response in Venezuela’s history.
GEM @globalempowermentmission, in partnership with @welove_foundation and the U.S. @statedept, has committed an initial $75 million in aid for Phase 1 Emergency Support.
The scale of this response is extraordinary, but the numbers tell only part of the story. This is ultimately a story about the power of the Venezuelan diaspora, the resilience of the Venezuelan people, and what is possible when the public, private, nonprofit, and humanitarian sectors work together toward one mission.
Our First Two Months of Impact:
• $30M+ in humanitarian aid delivered
• 5,338 pallets shipped
• 30 humanitarian cargo flights
• 175 sea containers
• 125+ direct distributions to affected communities
According to the United Nations Logistics Cluster, GEM has delivered more than 50% of all humanitarian aid entering Venezuela over the last two months.
A very special thank you to our incredible partners at We Love Foundation, the U.S. Department of State, the Venezuelan diaspora, our dedicated volunteers, donors, corporate partners, and every individual who has helped make this historic humanitarian effort possible.
This response is far from over. As we move beyond emergency relief, GEM will continue expanding its programs and preparing for the next phases of recovery and rebuilding.

Thanks to the support of the U.S. @statedept and @usembassybogota, GEM LATAM teams continue expanding humanitarian operations across Colombia, delivering critical aid directly to communities impacted by the devastating earthquake.
In Valle del Cauca, GEM ground teams are working alongside local governments, private-sector partners, community leaders, and fellow humanitarian organizations to coordinate relief efforts and reach families still awaiting assistance.
Yesterday, operations focused on Bugalagrande, where GEM teams reached 800 families in rural and underserved communities that had not yet received humanitarian aid. Among those served were 75 families forced to evacuate their apartment building after earthquake damage left the structure unsafe.
GEM Colombia Humanitarian Response to Date:
• 219,917 lbs / 99.75 metric tons of humanitarian aid shipped
• $1,704,484.78 in humanitarian aid delivered
• 232 pallets of aid shipped
• 12,545 GEM Family Necessity Kits deployed
• 4 humanitarian cargo flights delivered
GEM continues its partnership with First Lady Ana Lucía Pineda’s Colombia Un Solo Corazón initiative and Solidaridad por Colombia, while strengthening our logistics network across Medellín, Pereira, and Cali and building dedicated Colombian ground teams capable of reaching affected communities throughout the country.
From major cities to rural communities that have yet to receive assistance, GEM remains committed to going where the need is greatest and staying for the long road to recovery.

Special thanks to our incredible partners at @dhlus @dhllatam @dhlexpress and the U.S. @statedept for their continued support of GEM’s humanitarian response in #Colombia.
Another DHL cargo flight has just landed in Bogotá carrying critical humanitarian aid for communities impacted by the recent disasters.
DHL has transported 43 tons of GEM aid so far, with many more flights scheduled. To date, @globalempowermentmissionlatam has delivered more than 150 tons of humanitarian aid into Colombia.
Grateful for partnerships that help us move aid quickly and efficiently to the communities that need it most. 🇺🇸🇨🇴 @usembassybogota @fundacionsolidaridadxcol #colombiaunsolocorazon
HURRICANE LALA | HAWAIʻI RESPONSE
GEM Hawaiʻi teams are on the ground responding to communities across Hawaiʻi Island impacted by Hurricane Lala, with immediate efforts focused on the hard-hit Kaʻū region.
Nā‘ālehu was among the communities that sustained significant damage. Floodwaters swept away homes, damaged local businesses and Nā‘ālehu Elementary School, and left streets and properties covered in mud and debris. The iconic Punaluʻu Bake Shop, a longtime landmark and gathering place for the community, was also heavily damaged.
In the immediate aftermath of the storm, surrounding Kaʻū communities were effectively isolated. Damaged and blocked roads, disrupted communications, and road closures into Pāhala made it extremely difficult for outside assistance to reach residents.
Because GEM already has an established presence on Hawaiʻi Island, our teams were able to mobilize quickly and move directly into impacted communities. GEM Hawaiʻi is providing families with the practical resources they need to begin the difficult work of recovery, including cleanup kits, buckets, tarps, shovels, gloves, and other essential supplies to clear mud and debris and protect damaged homes.
GEM is also providing immediate cash assistance through cash cards distributed to affected families and community centers, helping those whose homes have become unlivable cover urgent necessities during these first critical days.
For families who have lost so much, recovery begins one home, one family, and one community at a time. GEM Hawaiʻi will continue working alongside local communities as immediate relief transitions into the longer road toward recovery. Every donation makes a difference.

Over the past weeks, local restaurants have generously kept our volunteers fed, allowing our teams to stay focused on what matters most: delivering life-saving aid to families affected by the devastating earthquakes in Venezuela & Colombia.
Generosity multiplies. Every meal you send our way, helps keep us moving, so we could keep moving for Venezuela & Colombia.

Every humanitarian mission is powered by people who show up and that includes the incredible kitchens working behind the scenes.
Over the past weeks, local restaurants have generously kept our volunteers fed, allowing our teams to stay focused on what matters most: delivering life-saving aid to families affected by the devastating earthquakes in Venezuela & Colombia.
Generosity multiplies. Every meal you send our way, helps keep us moving, so we could keep moving for Venezuela & Colombia.
THIS is what COMMUNITY response looks like. We could not have done it without you.
