Operation TALLAWAH
Our Response to Hurricane Melissa.
On October 28, 2025, Hurricane Melissa laid bare much of Jamaica’s infrastructure. The category 5 storm demolished hospitals and health centers and destroyed many schools and centers of learning in the western end of the island.
Your donation will help bring stability, safety, and hope back to children whose education has been disrupted. Our relief efforts will be focused on the youngest and most vulnerable students, that is, those at the basic school educational level (aged 2 -6 years), in the parishes of Trelawny, and St. Elizabeth.
Join us, by giving now and throughout the period, to address their needs:
-
Short-term (Oct-Nov 2025)
-
💛Help children regain routine, hope, and stability in the wake of this disaster. Provide water, food, clothing, emergency solar lighting, portable solar chargers for cell phones, and medical supplies for survival.
-
-
Mid-term (Nov 2025 - Feb 2026)
-
🏫 Provide and erect tents to functions as classrooms pair so safe in-person learning can resume as soon as possible for students aged 2-6 years old.
-
📚 Replace learning materials, textbooks, and supplies lost or damaged by Hurricane Melissa.
-
👩🏽🏫 Support families and teachers so entire school communities can bounce back stronger than before.
