Story

On October 28, our lives changed forever when Hurricane Melissa made a direct hit as a Category 5 storm right here in Westmoreland. The ferocious 185 mph winds and relentless rain completely compromised our family home in Petersfield savanna-la-mar,

Like so many others in our community, we watched parts of our roof tear away and structural walls succumb to the sheer force of the storm. We are currently displaced, staying in temporary accommodations while we figure out how to piece our lives back together.

Our home was not just a structure; it was our safe haven.

Rebuilding in Jamaica right now is incredibly challenging, but we are determined to build back stronger and safer. We have established this campaign to raise funds for the foundational raw materials and local labor required to make our home liveable once again.

Where Your Donations Will Go:

Every single dollar raised from this campaign will be directly withdrawn to our Scotiabank account in Savanna-la-Mar to pay for construction costs. Your generosity will fund:

• Roofing & Timber: Replacing the completely destroyed zinc sheets, rafters, and water barriers.

• Masonry & Structural Integrity: Purchasing cement, steel rebar, and concrete blocks to reinforce weakened walls.

• Local Labor: Hiring skilled contractors from our community to execute the rebuild safely.

• Windows and External Doors: Securing the house against the elements.

No donation is too small. Even if you cannot donate, sharing this link with your friends, family, and network means the world to us as we navigate this long road to recovery. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your kindness, prayers, and support.
