Hi, my name is Opal Vassell daughter of the hurricane victim. This donation will go to my mother to help build her house that was lost during the hurricane Melissa. Hurricane Melissa has left a trail of devastation across Jamaica, destroying homes and communities along her path. The extensive flooding has caused isolation from aid and support. As of 10/30/25, over two-thirds of the country is without power. People along the western and southwestern parts of Jamaica are among the worst affected. Many have sustained irreparable damage to their homes, leaving people without food, water, and shelter.

Opal is doing everything she can from afar to help, but the need is immense. Her family urgently requires support to access necessities (food, water, clothing, and temporary shelter). They will need to rebuild their home from the ground up, all while surviving the aftermath of this disaster.

Your generosity can make an immediate difference. Every donation brings her family one step closer to safety and stability. Please consider donating or sharing to help them recover and rebuild after this heartbreaking disaster. The funds will be use to buy materials and pay the carpenters.
