Following the strong 7.4 magnitude earthquake that struck Colombia on Monday, August 10, 2026, the entire country has mobilized. The death toll has reached 224, and international aid flights are arriving. We have compiled all the official information regarding drop-off points, blood banks, and donation channels.

Collection Centers & Blood Banks
Local authorities and the Red Cross have enabled dozens of drop-off points in major cities, including Bogotá (Palacio de los Deportes, El Campín, Unicentro), Medellín (Eafit, Alcaldía), Pereira (multiple Café locations), and Santander.
Urgent blood donations are required in Cali at hospitals including HUV, Hemolife, Cruz Roja Valle, Fundación Valle del Lili, and Imbanaco.
What to donate? (Local Drop-offs)
For those in Colombia, authorities request non-perishable foods (rice, oil, pasta, canned goods), bottled drinking water, blankets, personal hygiene items, and basic first aid supplies (masks, sterile gauze, alcohol). Important: Do not donate medicines or used clothing.
We invite all our community, clients, and tech partners to join this cause. Solidarity is our best infrastructure right now.
