![Yubisay Elena Sanchez Garcia, 42, surrounded by 4 of her 10 children. .She is living with two other families in what amounts to be a shack on a river bank in the border town of Cúcuta, Colombia. Because they don’t have proper documentation from the Venezuelan government, something that would be near impossible to obtain, her kids cannot attend school in Colombia. Like other migrants she can only work under the table without proper documentation, leading to a precarious existent for her and her family. “I know the living conditions here look bad, but it’s better than what we faced in Venezuela. I go out at night to collect rubbish to recycle. I do it while the children are asleep because I can’t do anything during the day. After all they aren’t allowed to go to school here so I work at night. It’s not easy paying rent and feeding them, collecting trash doesn’t pay much. All I really want for them is to go to school.](https://forohumanitariocolombia.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/RS59387_CLM-2019-JE-0083-150x150.jpg)

![May 2019, Paraguachón, Colombia. Families cross the Venezuela-Colombia border at Paraguachón, Colombia. The border is fluid, with people moving in both directions. Some Venezuelans enter Colombia for as little as a day — long enough to get one meal — up to several weeks or months, to work and stock up on supplies before returning home. Others arrive with suitcases and anything else they can carry, and may stay indefinitely. Colombians also enter Venezuela through this crossing, to purchase items that are still available at significantly cheaper prices there. In the week before this visit between 400 and 800 people crossed into Colombia every day through the crossing at Paraguachón, while around 200 crossed into Venezuela. These numbers don’t account for people crossing at any of the 200 illegal crossing sites in La Guajira. In total, more than 1 million Venezuelans have fled to Colombia, fleeing economic, governmental and social collapse that has plunged the majority of the population into poverty, joblessness and near starvation.](https://forohumanitariocolombia.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/colombia-201905-emillstein-0155-150x150.jpg)

![2018 May, Riohacha, Colombia. Christopher Allbritton, Media Relations Manager, and Ana Maria Olarte, Mercy Corps Communications Specialist, speak with Oriana Mavares, 43, in Oriana's makeshift shelter under the bridge over the Rio Ranchera on the northern side of Riohacha. Oriana is from Maracaibo in Venezuela, and came to Colombia about eight months ago. During the day she lives under the bridge, and at night she sleeps by a boat on the nearby beach. Oriana left because ÒThereÕs no food, no health, no schools, no opportunitiesÓ in Venezuela, she says. She used to work at a hospital cleaning beds, but the hospital was forced to close because there was no money to keep it running, she says. ÒI came because I didnÕt have any money to feed my family,Ó she adds.](https://forohumanitariocolombia.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/colombia-201805-msamper-314-150x150.jpg)
