#EcuadorNeedsYou #EcuadorTeNecesita

Ecuador is a small country in South America, rich in culture, landscape and welcoming people, sadly Covid-19 has devastated the country.

The groups that we are supporting:

You&US for Manta Children ¬Fundación Raíz Ecuador ¬Weekend Warriors (Amy Prisco)/ Ecuador from the Heart ¬Muyumi Kanki's "Elder Wisdom Preservation Project" ¬Friends of Santa Maria Orphanage ¬ Fundación Nur ¬Coastal Animal Rescue Ecuador ¬Fundación Cristo de la Calle ¬ Maná del Cielo

Please donate to help orphan children, the elderly and families in extreme poverty in Ecuador survive the Covid -19 pandem

Most Ecuadoreans (approx. 6 out of 10) engage in informal work which means that during the lock down period they do not have any form of income or means to support their families, due to the lock down people are unable to work and as a result they have little or no access to food.

Orphanages relying on funding from the government will not receive any funding for at least next 6 weeks and therefore will not be able to feed or care for the children in the orphanage. Others are funded by the kind donations of people and they have also seen those donations disappear due to the crisis of the pandemic.

£10(approx. $12) will feed a family of 4 members , 1 meal per day for up to 5 days.

The selected groups are in most cases run by expats residing in Ecuador volunteering their time and whatever resources they have available to help those who are in need, they are non for profit, non government organisations, just volunteers trying to make a difference.

Queridos Amigos,

Contribuye a esta causa Ecuador Covid19-Support para ayudar a las familias pobres sin ingresos para que puedan quedarse en casa y asi evitar más contaminación y muertes.

Ecuador es un país pequeño en Sur America, rico en cultura, paisaje y gente acogedora. Lamentablemente Covid-19 ha devastado el país.

La mayoría de las personas ecuatorianas ( 6 de 10 aprox.) realizan trabajos informales, lo que significa que no tienen ningún tipo de ingresos o recursos para mantener a sus familias debido a su inabilidad de poder trabajar durante el confinamiento, estas familias tienen poco o ningún acceso a alimentos y articulos esenciales.

£ 10 (aproximadamente $ 12) puede alimentar a una familia de 4 personas, 1 comida por día hasta 5 días.

Aquí hay una lista de grupos de voluntarios que han sido seleccionados, la distribución de dineros se publicara aquí y nos aseguraremos de que se realice la debida diligencia para minimizar el riesgo de fraude antes de que se asignen los fondos a estos gruppos

En la mayoría de los casos, estos grupos están dirigidos por extrangeros expatriados que residen en Ecuador y ofrecen voluntariamente su tiempo y cualquier recurso que tengan disponible para ayudar los más necesitados, son grupos sin fines de lucro, no gubernamentales, conformados de voluntarios que intentan ayudar a los que realmente lo necesitan.
