CA-3-P009982001 2026-09-14T04:03:33 November 2020 - Hurricane Eta made landfall in Central America on November 3 as a powerful Category 4 storm. The resulting rainfalls and persistent flooding has affected hundreds of thousands of people in Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, and other surrounding countries. To date, rising river levels and landslides have caused over 100 deaths, led approximately 60,000 people to seek shelter, and destroyed important health and social infrastructure, including major hospitals. The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) is coordinating with National Societies in the region to help support emergency medical services and aid distribution, in areas most affected by the storm. . With GAC’s support, National Societies are working to save lives and help reduce the suffering of people affected by Hurricane Eta. Project activities include: (1) providing essential household items and emergency shelter; (2) distributing safe water and hygiene kits; and (3) scaling up emergency medical services.
