Behind every donation, there is a story; This is your impact

Through our Healthy Beginnings Program in Ecuador, one of our expecting mothers couldn’t attend her first workshop because her husband was receiving chemotherapy that same day. Pregnant, far from home, and without family nearby, she stayed by his side.

Because of your generosity, GRACE was able to stand beside them too — bringing their family much-needed food and reminding them they are not alone.

In Venezuela, a young man in La Guaira searched desperately for his family after the earthquake. When he found them, they had passed away. But even through his own grief, he kept going.

With protective gloves, goggles, and filtered masks provided through your donations, he continued searching through the devastation — and rescued two strangers alive.

At the University Hospital of Caracas, doctors had been requesting antibiotics for days for a patient from La Guaira, but they were impossible to find. Then you showed up. Those medications were purchased and delivered — helping save a life.

But the need is far from over.

In Venezuela, many children have been left orphaned or separated from their families. Organizations on the ground are working tirelessly to find relatives who can care for them.

Until then, they need us — food, a safe place to sleep, basic supplies, and small reminders of hope during an unimaginable time.

In Ecuador, GRACE continues supporting families facing pregnancy without support, serious illnesses without resources, and children who need healthcare, nutrition, education, and a community beside them.

At GRACE, we protect the privacy, safety, and dignity of every person we serve. Every story can be told with respect.

This is what you are supporting.
This is your impact.
