NWJS Jamaica Appeal

There is National Donation Scheme - check out https://supportjamaica.gov.jm/

However, we want to create a way to direct funds raised in Bangor to our partners in Clarendon - so watch this space!

But general support is also urgently needed:

HURRICANE MELISSA DISASTER RELIEF

Dear Fellow Jamaicans and Friends of Jamaica

The Office of Disaster Preparedness and Emergency Management (ODPEM) has launched the Support Jamaica website: https://supportjamaica.gov.jm ; a dedicated online platform developed by the Government of Jamaica to mobilise assistance, coordinate relief and streamline recovery efforts post Hurricane Melissa.

This centralised platform offers a suite of essential services, including:

• A straightforward “Donate Now” option so that citizens, Diaspora partners, private sector and other organisations can contribute to rebuilding lives and restoring hope;
• An interactive shelter-locator for those in need
• A transparent, efficient and effective platform to track and receive resources.

For all those interested in donating, we encourage you only use the site that ends in the domain gov.jm and avoid any scams. The site has been developed and donated by the Amber Group in consultation with our GoJ team has been thoroughly security tested to ensure your protection

The High Commission reiterates its gratitude for the support and solidarity with Government and people of Jamaica during this time.
