PR Earthquake 2020

JANUARY, 2020
On Jan 6th, earthquakes hit the Southwest part of Puerto Rico. We launched our DART a week after the initial event. The structural damage of homes was too intense for us to assist and the area still had after shocks weeks after the initial event. We were able to find a local partner World Central Kitchen (WCK) that was performing feeding operations in the island. We sent an average of 5 volunteers per day from our Yabucoa base to the Ponce/Yauco area to help WCK with their feeding operations.
Total donations: $66K - Total allocated spent: $60K
