Hello everyone,

I’m reaching out with a heavy heart to ask for your help for my family in Ricketts River, Frome, Westmoreland, Jamaica, who have been deeply affected by Hurricane Melissa. Our family and much of the surrounding community were devastated — roofs torn off, trees uprooted, and entire neighborhoods left underwater.

Thankfully, everyone is safe, but the road to recovery is overwhelming. My family has lost most of their belongings, and their homes have suffered severe structural and water damage. Rebuilding will take time, resources, and support that they simply don’t have right now.

We’re raising funds to help cover:

• Emergency food and clean water for the coming weeks

• Replacement of lost furniture, clothing, and basic supplies

• Essential repairs to make the home livable again

Any amount — big or small — will make a difference and bring hope to a family and community trying to start over. If you can’t donate, please consider sharing this campaign to help spread the word.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your kindness, generosity, and prayers.

With gratitude,

Renee & Rankine family
