Hurricane Melissa, the first Category 5 hurricane on record to strike Jamaica directly, made landfall at 185mph with catastrophic winds, rain and widespread flooding. Extensive infrastructure failure is expected immediately due to the strength and size of this storm.
Millions are at risk and CARE, with our partners, is urgently mobilizing to deliver lifesaving relief in Jamaica and other areas in the Caribbean. Donate urgently for first aid, hygiene supplies, emergency food rations, water and water treatment kits and other shelter supplies.
