Help me flee my country.

Hello, my name is Carmen (she/her). I’m 23 years old, and I need help to leave my country, Venezuela.

(Some info about myself: I have a B.Ed. in Spanish and Literature, and I’m currently working as a news editor)

The following is a lot to take in, but bare with me.

As some of you may know, Venezuela is in a deep economic, political, and humanitarian crisis due to the low oil prices, the devaluation of out currency and a corrupt government that doesn’t know how to handle the nation.

Right now Vzla is the country with the highest inflation rate in the world: 1369% (hyperinflation).

Our currency, the bolívar fuerte, is practically worthless. Here, one (1) dollar is worth around 100.000 Bs. f. the minimum wage is 456.507 Bs. f. a month. I, a full time worker (8 hours per day), make less than 5 dollars a month.

Because the national production is dead, almost everything is imported. Which means the cost of products depends on the value of the $. So basic goods can cost half your salary.

(Here some info about foreign currency regulations and price controls in Venezuela)

Some prices (12/11/2017):

(I know, it’s RIDICULOUS)

All of this, of course, increases the violence, insecurity and corruption rates as well. Caracas (our capital), Valencia and Maturín made it to the top 10 “most violent cities in the world”. Cumaná (Where I live) is number 24.

Basically, you can’t own anything without being at risk of getting robbed/kidnaped/killed, you can’t save money because the devaluation/inflation moves too fast, you can’t eat well because you can’t afford it, you can’t get sick because there’s no medicine and hospitals are in shambles.

We literally don’t even have cash, because we need too many bills to buy anything and the demand is too high.

You can’t live here, period.

A lot of venezuelans are leaving the country everyday to anywhere really, but as the time goes by it gets harder to get out. Airlines are cutting flights and the transportation system is shutting down.

I stayed for the longest, hopeful that maybe things would change, but nothing happened and things are just getting worse.

For that and more, I, along with two close friends, have decided to leave Venezuela and settle in Perú, to help our families from outside.

“The bolivar is so devalued that sending only a fraction of a month’s salary to a relative in Venezuela can amount to millions of bolivars. For example, the minimum wage in Peru is around US $250. If you send your relative about US $10, they would have three minimum wage monthly salaries” (x).

But before all that we need money. At least $1.500 to pay for the travel (on bus/ 4 days aprox.) and to cover the expenses of a month stay (until we stabilize) in Perú.

So, that’s it. Any little help is a lot, PLEASE SHARE.

(Because neither Paypal nor GoFundMe work in Venezuela…)

(Sorry if my english is wack. If you want to ask me anything or want to know more about us, my ask is open)

A lot of you may remember that my sister passed in 2015 and we were able to afford to bury her thanks to the kindness of community members. My family is quite poor, my father is a disabled veteran and he and my mother are just getting by. My dad was able to buy a small granite marker that the cemetery staff deemed “temporary” about a year ago, and the cemetery staff has REMOVED it, giving us the option of buying a permanent, expensive new one, or leaving her grave as an unmarked pile of dirt, since they also have neglected to plant any grass on her grave. There is an entire facebook page dedicated to airing grievances against the cemeteries in Floyd county that are owned by StoneMor parent company. Even if you can only spare a dollar, please do. We are out of options at this point.
