Pitch in and help Jamaica

On October 28, Jamaica was struck by Hurricane Melissa, a catastrophic Category 5 storm — the strongest ever recorded in the nation’s history. Entire communities have been devastated: homes flattened, roads washed away, countless families left without shelter, food, or clean water and many churches demolished. Many have lost loved ones, their livelihoods, and everything they owned. The people of Jamaica are facing unimaginable hardship, and now, more than ever, they need our compassion and support to rebuild their lives and their country.

You can make a real difference by contributing to ongoing relief efforts. Every donation, regardless of size, helps provide emergency shelter, medical aid, food supplies, rebuilding of churches and long-term recovery assistance for those affected. Volunteer organizations are working tirelessly on the ground. But they cannot do it alone.

Together, we can help Jamaica rise from this tragedy stronger than before. Join the PCWC relief efforts today and stand in solidarity with the resilient people of Jamaica as they begin the long journey toward recovery and hope. Here are two ways to join the global effort to fund cleanup and recovery.
