KINGSTON, Jamaica – In a significant move to aid communities ravaged by Hurricane Melissa, the People’s National Party (PNP) initiated its first official hurricane relief mission in Westmoreland on Sunday. This effort is part of the Party’s broader islandwide recovery strategy aimed at addressing the widespread devastation caused by the storm. The mission, spearheaded by the PNP Youth Organisation (PNPYO), the Patriots, and the Women’s Movement, united Party representatives and independent volunteers in a collaborative drive to provide essential supplies and emotional support to the most affected families. PNP President and Opposition Leader Mark Golding expressed profound gratitude for the overwhelming support from both the private sector and individual Jamaicans. He highlighted that the initiative exemplifies the nation’s collective spirit and commitment to unity. “We are deeply moved by the compassion and generosity shown by Jamaicans everywhere,” Golding remarked. “This is what true nation-building looks like: people helping people, regardless of politics. The recovery ahead will be long, but we are committed to standing with our fellow Jamaicans every step of the way.” The PNP underscored that this mission marks the beginning of a series of coordinated relief efforts targeting other impacted parishes. The Party plans to collaborate closely with community leaders, government agencies, and private partners to ensure that aid reaches those most in need. “We are one Jamaica, and this moment calls for unity and action,” the Party’s statement concluded. “Together, we will rebuild stronger.”
