Hurricane Melissa
At least 67 people have lost their lives after Hurricane Melissa, called “the world’s strongest storm so far this year,” ripped through the Caribbean.
In Jamaica, over 100,000 homes have been damaged or destroyed, and the UN estimates 36,000 people need emergency food support. In Cuba, over 700,000 people were evacuated from high-impact areas, and are now in need of food, water and shelter.
Flooding and landslides continue to cause damage in these already-fragile places.
Today, you can help bring emergency food supplies to 2,500 families in Cuba and 2,860 families in Jamaica. These families live in the hardest-hit areas of the country and are in desperate need.
Your gift of any amount will help a family get through the next few weeks.
