Here’s a progress video on our Hope for Bucha project for Vokzalna street. This street was ambushed in March 2022.

GEM in partnership with the Howard G Buffet foundation and a private/ public partnership with @bucha.rada are completely restoring a 2km stretch of Bucha. This serves as a symbol of hope for this community.

A total of 110 homes will be fixed by spring 2023.
Only Ukrainian materials are purchased and only Ukrainian laborers are hired, therefore stimulating local economies. This is what Empowerment is all about. #Ukraine #Bucha

A three-alarm fire displaced residents from a Miami Gardens apartment building. Our teams were there same day to assist the 110 displaced residents by distributing our emergency @MiamiFoundation Dade County necessities kits, plus towels, pillows and quilts. In addition, we distributed Bstrong cash cards from @bethennyfrankel’s Bstrong initiative operated by Gem. These cards give people immediate support for short term incidentals. #GemMissions #bstrong @dadeems #thirdalarmfire #miamifardensfire @mayordlc #miamistrong

Everyday our GEM teams service thousands of Ukrainians across the frontlines. Here is a sneak peek into our critical aid distributions taking place all throughout Ukraine in partnership with the Howard G. Buffet Foundation 🇺🇦 #Ukraine #bstrong @good360usa

Helmet cam footage of our distribution in Bahkmut

Helmet cam footage of our distribution in Bahkmut last week. Just yesterday the road into the city was captured & cut off by Russians 🇷🇺 This may be the last humanitarian support to make it to the frontline of Bahkmut. Last week our team entered the outskirts of the city under 1km from the frontline on foot to deliver aid to an underground community shelter that sleeps over 100 people & services the local community. We heard thousands of explosions that day. #Bahkmut #Ukraine #Donetsk

GEM Bstrong is able to rapidly respond to disaster

GEM Bstrong is able to rapidly respond to disasters because we are positioned across the world with strategic branches. Our new USA Gem West branch is positioned to serve any major disasters in the Western United States & the pacific.

Since November 2018, Global Empowerment Mission has distributed over $3M in supplies & aid to fire victims in surrounding communities in the region.

On January 14th 2023, GEM will distribute over $700,000 in supplies as part of our phase 3 long term recovery commitment to fire survivors at 13700 Skyway, Magalia, California. 11 AM- 5PM.

Supplies include new Dr. Oz mattresses from Malouf Industries & @_augustmission_ . Hollander bedding, and a variety of home goods and small appliances from our partners, @amazon & @good360usa. Aid for fires also includes tents, medical supplies, humidifiers and diabetic readers. This branch is also supporting the latest earthquake & mudslides in the region. #GemBstrong

GEM has been on the ground operating full time in Haiti since the 2010 earthquake.

In the past 12 years, we have seen it all and perseverance is all that matters. Many groups came to help after the earthquake but not many stayed. Haiti needs us more than ever now. We cannot let the people of Haiti suffer due to its current turmoil.

The children from our tent city in January 2010 are all grown up and some in colleges already. GEM has placed them in private schools this entire time.

Here’s some photos of our latest 2023 distribution and some powerful ones from 2010. This was our founder, @michaelcapponi 100th trip to Haiti in 12 years. #haiti #gemmissions
