When your home, your community, and your sense of safety are shaken, rebuilding takes all of us. 🇨🇴❤️
Last week, Colombia was heavily shaken by a 7.4 earthquake. So many lives were lost, and so many families are now facing the unimaginable reality of losing their homes and everything they had.
My country and my people are hurting, and while we may not be there physically to help, we can still show up from wherever we are.
Today, I’m asking my friends, family, colleagues, and community to help in any way you can. ❤️
Organizations like Global Empowerment Mission (GEM), where we have had the privilege of volunteering on other occasions, and TECHO, are working to support communities in need.
You can help by donating money, sending needed items, volunteering your time, or simply sharing information with others who may be able to help.
And if you can’t donate money or time, reach out to your Colombian friends. Check in on them. Ask how they’re doing. Looking out for each other emotionally matters too. Sometimes, simply knowing that someone is thinking of you can make a difference. ❤️

Today, this one is for my Colombian family. 🇨🇴

Thank you for showing up for Colombia. ❤️🇨🇴
