Kilmarnock is a rural farming district on the border of North West St. Elizabeth and Eastern Westmoreland, home to over 200 hardworking agricultural families. These families form the backbone of Jamaica’s food supply—yet today, they stand in urgent need of help.

Due to their remote location, Kilmarnock residents are often the last to receive assistance in times of crisis. As we enter the recovery and rebuild phase, the community faces severe challenges: damaged homes, loss of electricity, limited access to clean water, disrupted farming operations, and destroyed livelihoods.

Emprezz Golding, a 2022 Prime Minister’s Awardee for Social Enterprise, is volunteering alongside community leaders as a Relief and Rebuild Mobilizer. Together, they are working tirelessly to secure emergency support—and they are calling on the global Jamaican family for help.

🌍 Why Your Support Matters

These families live off the land. When disaster strikes:

Farms are wiped out

Livestock is lost

Homes are damaged

Electricity disappears

Communication becomes impossible

Every dollar you give today directly impacts real people—farmers, children, elders, and families who urgently need a safe place to sleep, clean water, and a way to restart their livelihoods.

🎯 First Phase Goal: Rebuild, Restore, Restart

Funds raised will cover logistics, purchasing, and delivery for five critical areas identified by the community:

1. Solar Lights for Homes & Pathways

Bringing visibility, security, and safety to families currently living in darkness.

2. Generators for Community Hubs

Power for communication, medication storage, charging devices & coordinating rebuild efforts.

3. Potable Drinking Water

Providing clean water immediately while local systems are restored.

4. Livelihood Restart – Agriculture & Livestock

Supporting families with:

Seeds & seedlings

Fertilizer & agricultural inputs

Starter livestock (layers, broilers, goats, cattle)

Supplies to replant key crops (yam, cabbage, peppers, etc.)

5. Building Materials for 200+ Damaged Homes

Each family will receive one critical item—a bundle of zinc, plywood sheet, cement, or other essential material.
