<div><strong>Rebuild Black River, St. Elizabeth - Hurricane Melissa Relief</strong>

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div><strong>Who I am:</strong>

</div>

<div>My name is <strong>Howard Williamson</strong>, and I am the founder of <strong>JerseyJam Inc.</strong>, a registered nonprofit organization based in <strong>Trenton, New Jersey </strong>that supports Caribbean communities through cultural events, youth programs, and emergency relief initiatives.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div><strong>Where I'm From:</strong>

</div>

<div>Although JerseyJam is based in New Jersey, my roots and family ties extend deeply into <strong>St. Elizabeth, Jamaica</strong>, where many of my relatives and friends still live.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div><strong>My relationship to the community:</strong>

</div>

<div>I am personally connected to the people of <strong>Black River</strong>, one of Jamaica's oldest  and most historic towns, and I've seen first hand the devastating impact of the <strong>Hurricane Melissa</strong>, which caused major flooding, home destruction, and damage to local schools, roads, and small businesses.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div><strong>How the funds will be used:</strong>

</div>

<div>All donations will go directly toward:

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<ul>

<li>Rebuilding damaged homes and community buildings

</li>

</ul>

<div><br />

</div>

<ul>

<li>Providing food, clothing, and clean water to displaced families

</li>

</ul>

<div><br />

</div>

<ul>

<li>Assisting local schools with supplies and recovery support

</li>

</ul>

<div><br />

</div>

<ul>

<li>Supporting community rebuilding projects and small business recovery

</li>

</ul>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Every dollar raised will be used transparently, and updates will be shared to show exactly how the funds are helping families rebuild.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div><strong>Together, we rise and rebuild. </strong>

</div>

<div>Thank you for your support and for standing with the people of Black River during this time of need.
