On 28 October 2025, Hurricane Melissa battered Southwestern Jamaica with a force stronger than Hurricane Katrina. Families have lost everything. People are unaccounted for, homes fell into the sea or were washed away. Lives will be forever changed. I grew up Bluefields, Jamaica and I am committed to helping the region rebuild. Please support the Bluefields Foundation (https://bluefieldsvillasfoundation.org/), a US and JA-registered charity under the name Bluefields Environmental Protection Association (EIN 27-1391451 and TRN 002-155-443) in getting this work done. We will be providing food, water and help rebuilding critical infrastructure during this challenging time. We do not have much time to get families the support that they need - please help us.
