In response to the extensive devastation wrought by Hurricane Melissa in Jamaica, Saint Lucia’s National Emergency Management Organisation (NEMO) has initiated a comprehensive donation drive to support recovery efforts. The initiative aims to gather essential relief items for distribution to affected communities in Jamaica, where the hurricane has caused widespread displacement and destruction. NEMO is calling upon citizens, organizations, and businesses to contribute to this humanitarian effort, emphasizing solidarity with the Jamaican government and people. Donations will be strictly limited to items specified on the official needs list provided by the Government of Jamaica, with clothing items currently excluded. Financial contributions and the full list of required items can be accessed via the official link: https://supportjamaica.gov.jm/needs. Donations can be delivered to the NEMO Secretariat in Bisee, Castries, between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. NEMO has expressed gratitude for the public’s generosity and cooperation as Saint Lucia extends vital support to its Caribbean neighbors during this challenging time.
