Urgent HELP for Hurricane Melissa Survivors Caribbean Strong
The storm is over — but the crisis is not. Families are hungry, homes are gone, and hope is fading. Your help can change that. Donate now. Act fast. Lives depend on it.
The magnitude of devastation in Jamaica is BIG. REALLY BIG. And we must rise to this challenge with an EVEN BIGGER RESPONSE‼️
A message from Michael Capponi CEO & President of GEM
So far we've raised ~$40k in cash and have received $1.415M worth of donations from our Amazon Wishlist (please donate food!)
But, WE NEED TO REACH $1 MILLION in cash to keep relief flowing.
(we need $100 from 10,000 people. Add your drop the bucket, every mickle make a muckle)
We've dealt with crises before throughout the Caribbean to the scale of tens of thousands, this is on the scale of hundreds of thousands, approaching a million — PEOPLE.
We are on the brink of a humanitarian crisis WHICH CAN BE PREVENTED WITH YOUR HELP.
