The response to the crisis

By NATHALI PEREZ CORDOBA | DIRECTORA OPERATIVA

El comienzo de la reestructuración…

Seguimos trabajando con las personas más afectadas por el ciclón. Debido a la magnitud del desastre, aún es difícil recuperar sus viviendas y un lugar cómodo donde vivir y volver a tener un trabajo estable. Por eso priorizamos las necesidades básicas, entre ellas la alimentación diaria.

Por esta razón se creó una cocina comunitaria para atender a las personas afectadas, haciéndoles saber que ese es el lugar al que pueden acudir siempre que lo necesiten y entregándoles suministros básicos.

Nuestro comedor depende enteramente de donaciones y voluntarios, por eso es nuestra labor seguir implicados en esta noble tarea poniendo todo nuestro esfuerzo en ella.

Siempre agradecidos por el apoyo recibido y comprometidos con los más necesitados.

In the wake of Hurricane Otis, a Category 5 storm that has devastated Acapulco and the state of Guerrero, REMAR OCCIDENTE is committed to providing urgent humanitarian aid to those affected. The hurricane has caused unprecedented destruction, resulting in the loss of 48 lives and impacting over 580,000 residents. The destruction of roads has left many communities isolated and in dire need of assistance.
