After a magnitude 7.4 earthquake in Colombia, families in Cali live in improvised shelters due to damaged homes. The city's hospital is overwhelmed, with 70% of its facilities unusable. Residents in smaller towns like Roldanillo and Toro face similar challenges, with many shops destroyed and people without jobs. The government has declared an economic emergency and plans a three-stage reconstruction plan, but remote areas may be overlooked. Shakira and Live Nation have pledged $1 million to rebuild schools.
