Images of solidarity for the victims of the earthquake in Ecuador

Posted On 23 Apr 2016

Ecuador once again demonstrates its spirit of solidarity. A sentiment also came from abroad with rescue workers who came from Mexico, Argentina, Colombia and other countries. The help is still needed and we must understand that we must be prepared to continue giving a hand. The little ones have been an example to follow. From children who broke up their piggy bank to others who donated their stuffed animals in exchange for bottles of water for the victims of the earthquake of last April 16, that leaves damage in Esmeraldas, Manabi, Los Rios, Santa Elena, Guayas and Santo Domingo de los Tsachilas.

All these actions were reflected by the lens of various photographers. Here we share some of the most touching and supportive images to show how a tragedy can generate the most sublime and heroic actions and unite a nation.
