Challenge

Hurricane Melissa threatens Jamaica with destructive winds and flooding. In Spanish Town, the Cromarty Grove Early Childhood Education Center (ECDC), serving 70 children and 8 staff, is especially vulnerable. Over 95% of families live in poverty and lack the resources to prepare for or recover from such a disaster, leaving children at risk of losing safety, education, and stability.

Solution

This project will provide food, clean water, and emergency supplies to children and families at Cromarty Grove Early Childhood Education Center (ECDC) in Spanish Town. It will also support teachers and staff with relief and fund critical repairs so 70 children have a safe place to return, learn, and heal after Hurricane Melissa.

Long-Term Impact

By helping Cromarty Grove recover, this project will protect the education and well-being of 70 children and support 8 staff members. Restoring safe classrooms and stability after Hurricane Melissa reduces trauma, strengthens families, and helps the community build resilience, ensuring children continue learning and families remain supported beyond the disaster.
