Aid reaches hardest-hit communities in Jamaica

Large-scale distribution of essential items is underway in Treasure Beach, Jamaica

All Hands & Hearts, in partnership with local organization Breds Foundation Treasure Beach, is actively delivering critical relief to communities affected by Hurricane Melissa.

Our team transported essential supplies, including food staples such as beans and cooking oil, as well as hygiene kits including soap and feminine hygiene products, from Kingston to Treasure Beach. These items were first organized in a local warehouse to coordinate large-scale distributions.

Our teams have now begun distributing these supplies directly to families in the hardest-hit communities around Treasure Beach.
