Hello, Mimi here. I've been hesitating a lot to release this announcement, but honestly, the situation has escalated so much, and I'm devastated. As many of you may know, I was born and raised in Venezuela, and almost three days ago, my country was hit by some really powerful earthquakes. An incredibly large number of buildings, houses, and apartments were completely destroyed, collapsing into pieces, taking the lives of hundreds of Venezuelans and leaving several thousand others severely injured, while many are still trapped or waiting to be rescued from beneath the collapsed buildings. Sadly, some of them may have already passed away by now. My family was no exception. Thankfully, almost everyone in my family is safe, but two members of my family are nowhere to be found. We believe they are still trapped (for around three days now) under their apartment, as it sadly collapsed, just like many others. The city where I was born suffered the worst devastation. The city where my family lives was also heavily affected, as well as the city where I grew up and lived before migrating. I'm honestly heartbroken. I wish I could be with them today, but I'm more than 7,000 km away, and even Venezuela's main airport was severely damaged. This tragedy has touched me in the deepest way possible, so I decided to take the courage to ask all of you, my community, and the entire Cardano community for your help. I would like to raise some funds to send to Venezuela to help my people. I have friends who have spent the last three days buying medical supplies, food, and other essentials to give to the people who permanently lost their homes, and helping rescue those who are still trapped beneath the rubble. If you can contribute, please help us. And if you can't, please help us by sharing this message. I truly don't like asking for things like this, but today more than ever, I'm devastated by what has happened to my country, and I want to do everything in my power to help. This is the handle I created for the fundraiser. Everything we raise this weekend will be sent to Venezuela on Monday. $helpvenezuela pool.pm/$helpvenezuela Thank you so much to everyone who is willing to help us with this very delicate cause. I also apologize for having the courage to ask for something like this. Please take this message as a reminder to hug your loved ones tightly. Life can change from one day to the next when you least expect it.
