WCK teams were on the ground shortly after the latest downpours, quickly mobilizing across the region to identify areas of need. We have found that communities in the Maule region to be the most heavily impacted and have established a central meal distribution site in Licantén where flood water reached the roofs of many homes. Our teams are also delivering meals door-to-door to families in more isolated towns near Licantén. We were able provide meals within hours of arriving in Chile thanks to our partnership with Fundación Gastronomía Social—a nonprofit that develops collaborative approaches to improve food security, social inclusion, and environmental health.
