Response to hunger in Colombia during COVID-19

Location: Colombia (Pereiera, Cali)

Over 40% of the Colombian population live on a daily salary, many of these without any sort of social security. Having businesses close for months and people in quarantine led to great desperation for food and nutrition in different communities. Through GKC Foundation we have been working to collect recourses to provide nutrition and essentials for many of these communities and families who weren’t able to feed their families. We can see in peoples faces the gratitude, joy and hope when they receive these food packages.

Support

Through different contacts we raise awareness of the situation in Colombia and receive funds to buy and hand out these food packages. At times we have trouble and difficulties in collecting resources as we are right now.

Other needs: transportation
