Dear friends,<\/p>\n

I am documentary film director and TMS <\/em>writer Diran Noubar from France.<\/p>\n

A few days ago, Venezuela was struck by a catastrophic 7.5 magnitude earthquake. The destruction in Caracas is heartbreaking. Families have been displaced, buildings have turned to rubble, and the human toll is rising every hour.<\/p>\n

In the heart of this tragedy is our community\u2019s anchor, the Church of the Holy Saint Gregory the Illuminator in Caracas, with which I have a direct connection, and Bishop Bedros with whom I have a relationship and daily communication.<\/p>\n

At weAREmenia, we do things differently. We believe that in times of crisis, every second\u2014and every dollar\u2014counts. We are relaunching our Point-to-Point donation model to provide immediate, transparent relief.<\/p>\n

Our Guarantee of Transparency:<\/strong><\/p>\n

We don’t send money to large, overhead-heavy organizations. Through http:\/\/weAREmenia.org,<\/a> I will personally ensure that your donations go directly to the Church and the families in need. As always, I will document the process\u2014from the withdrawal of funds to the final delivery\u2014and post the videos on our site so you can see exactly how your contribution is saving lives.<\/p>\n

Donations may be given in cash , in hand of the people in need , through the organization of the church which already working 24 hours a day to help the people of Caracas with urgent needs .<\/p>\n

How You Can Help Today:<\/strong><\/p>\n

The needs are immediate: water, medicine, and emergency shelter. We are aiming to raise at least $10,000 in the next 48 hours to provide the first wave of direct aid.<\/p>\n
