Food 2 Venezuela (kickoff!)

Hi, I'm Nathan and I have a friend in Caracas, Venezuela who needs food and medicine and basic stuff like that. 
Her name is Denisse (the lady in the middle) and she is on a very limited income and she has asked me if I could send food down there.  The country is experiencing hyperinflation and food shortages (among other things).
 I was going to send money, but apparently even with money, food and basics are very difficult to come by.  You have to wait in ridiculously long lines with no guarantee that they won't run out of whatever they're selling before you get to the counter.  She has a serious hip problem (numerous surgeries, etc) that precludes her from standing in line.
I'm beginning to send food, etc down there but it comes to about $120 for a 10 lb box.   I would like to be able to send a bigger box (and more often) than my own limited

funds will allow.  I'm looking for someplace more cost effective, but until I find one, this will have to do.
Every little bit helps!  5 bucks, 10 bucks, 20 bucks... Please donate as soon as possible! :)
100% will go to the cost of buying the food and shipping it to Caracas.  
I thank you and Denisse and her family appreciate whatever you can give!
Sincerely,
Nathan
