Banks DIH Limited donates water, crackers to support Venezuela earthquake relief efforts

As Venezuela continues to recover from the devastating earthquakes that struck the country on June 24, 2026, Banks DIH Limited has done its part in donating 2400 cases of Rainforest Water and 7560 cartons of Triscuit crackers and biscuits for distribution to families affected by the disaster.

The twin earthquakes, with a magnitude 7.2 foreshock followed seconds later by a magnitude 7.5 mainshock, both centred in the Veroes municipality of Yaracuy, have caused widespread destruction across Venezuela, with the heaviest damage recorded in La Guaira and Caracas.
The death toll has surpassed 2200, with thousands more injured and tens of thousands displaced from their homes. The scale of this tragedy is immense.
Thousands of families have lost homes, loved ones, and livelihoods virtually overnight. The company, in a missive, stated that it is their hope that this contribution brings some measure of comfort to those working through unimaginable circumstances.

The donation was handed over to the Civil Defence Commission on July 1, 2026, for onwards distribution to communities in need.
Communications executive for the company, Sonya Forrester, related, “The scale of this disaster is heart-breaking. Venezuela is our neighbour, and at Banks DIH Limited, we believe that when a neighbouring nation is suffering, we have a responsibility to respond. We hope this donation provides some comfort to families who have lost so much.”
In addition, the company extends its deepest condolences to all those who have lost loved ones in this tragedy.
