Powerful earthquakes have devastated communities across Venezuela, leaving hundreds dead, thousands injured, and countless families searching for loved ones beneath collapsed buildings. Entire neighborhoods have been reduced to rubble, and many families have lost everything in just a matter of moments.

For more than 12 years, Hope Partners has served children and families in Venezuela through our Hope Center in Barquisimeto. While our Hope Center was spared from major damage and our children and staff are safe, many neighboring communities were not.

As rescue efforts continue, another need is becoming clear. Families need food. They need clean water. They need blankets, hygiene supplies, and basic necessities. They need to know they have not been forgotten.

That’s where Hope Partners is responding, in partnership with local churches already serving their communities.

We already know who God has called us to serve. In moments like this, we stand beside the local church as they care for their communities.

Our Hope Center Director, Luis Rea, is working in partnership with local churches serving communities affected by the earthquake. These pastors are already on the ground. They know the families. They know where the needs are greatest.

Hope Partners will purchase emergency supplies locally and provide them through our partnership with local churches, allowing pastors and church leaders to care for families in their own communities quickly and effectively.

Your gift will help provide emergency supplies such as:

• Food
• Clean drinking water
• Hygiene supplies
• Bedding and blankets
• Clothing
• Other essential relief items as needs arise

Every gift strengthens the local church as it brings practical help and the hope of Jesus Christ to families facing one of the darkest moments of their lives.

Please pray for every family grieving the loss of a loved one. Pray for those still waiting for news of missing family members. Pray for the pastors, churches, first responders, and volunteers serving tirelessly throughout the affected communities. Pray that God’s peace and comfort would be evident even in the middle of this tragedy.

Your gift today will provide emergency supplies that local churches can place directly into the hands of families who need them most. Because of trusted relationships already established through Hope Partners, help can move quickly to communities where it is needed.

Hope Partners International exists to rescue children and help transform their lives through acts of compassion in Jesus’ name. Through our Hope Centers, we walk alongside children and families with food support, education, discipleship, and consistent care, week after week. The goal is not a one-time moment. It is a steady path where a child can grow, heal, and discover the purpose God designed for their life.

While disaster relief is not our primary mission, caring for our neighbors in times of crisis is part of living out the love of Christ. Through trusted relationships with local churches in Venezuela, we have the opportunity to bring practical help and lasting hope to families who need it most.

Thank you for standing with the people of Venezuela.

Together, we can strengthen local churches, care for families in crisis, and remind them they have not been forgotten.

“Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.”
Matthew 25:40

Poderosos terremotos han devastado comunidades en toda Venezuela, dejando cientos de muertos, miles de heridos e incontables familias buscando a sus seres queridos bajo los escombros de edificios derrumbados. Barrios enteros han quedado reducidos a escombros, y muchas familias lo han perdido todo en cuestión de momentos.

Durante más de 12 años, Hope Partners ha servido a niños y familias en Venezuela a través de nuestro Centro de Esperanza en Barquisimeto. Aunque nuestro Centro de Esperanza no sufrió daños graves y nuestros niños y personal están a salvo, muchas comunidades vecinas no corrieron la misma suerte.

A medida que continúan los esfuerzos de rescate, otra necesidad se hace evidente. Las familias necesitan alimentos. Necesitan agua limpia. Necesitan cobijas, artículos de higiene y necesidades básicas. Necesitan saber que no han sido olvidadas.

Ahí es donde Hope Partners está respondiendo, en asociación con las iglesias locales que ya sirven a sus comunidades.

Ya sabemos a quiénes Dios nos ha llamado a servir. En momentos como este, nos ponemos al lado de la iglesia local mientras cuida a sus comunidades.

Nuestro Director del Centro de Esperanza, Luis Rea, está trabajando en asociación con iglesias locales que sirven a las comunidades afectadas por el terremoto. Estos pastores ya están en el terreno. Conocen a las familias. Saben dónde son más grandes las necesidades.
Hope Partners comprará suministros de emergencia localmente y los proporcionará a través de nuestra asociación con las iglesias locales, permitiendo que los pastores y líderes de la iglesia cuiden a las familias en sus propias comunidades de manera rápida y efectiva.

Su donativo ayudará a proporcionar suministros de emergencia tales como:

• Alimentos
• Agua potable limpia
• Artículos de higiene
• Ropa de cama y cobijas
• Ropa
• Otros artículos esenciales de ayuda según surjan las necesidades

Cada donativo fortalece a la iglesia local al brindar ayuda práctica y la esperanza de Jesucristo a las familias que enfrentan uno de los momentos más oscuros de sus vidas.
