On April 16, a devastating earthquake struck Ecuador. The temblor killed hundreds of people, damaged thousands of buildings and affected at least 250,000 children. A boy from Pedernales (one of the most severely damaged cities) explains the disaster’s impact: “It all started to fall down, and there were many dead.” The boy adds: “People here need water, food, pillows, sheets and places to sleep.”
