In response to the catastrophic impact of Hurricane Melissa, the Liberty Caribbean Foundation has launched a comprehensive regional relief initiative to aid affected communities across Jamaica. The foundation, a charitable arm of Flow and Liberty Business, has coordinated with regional crisis teams and partners across Liberty Latin America to deploy essential supplies, including food, water, emergency kits, and connectivity solutions, as soon as safe access is granted by local authorities. Ensuring the safety of staff remains the top priority, with teams actively verifying the well-being of all employees. Relief shipments are poised to commence at the earliest opportunity, pending official clearance. Inge Smidts, CEO of Liberty Caribbean, emphasized the foundation’s commitment to supporting both employees and the broader community, stating, ‘Our first duty is to our people and to the communities who rely on us. We are prepared to deliver immediate relief and stand with these communities throughout their recovery.’ The foundation is collaborating closely with national and local authorities, community organizations, and trusted relief partners to ensure efficient and targeted assistance, avoiding duplication and prioritizing the most vulnerable populations. Simultaneously, Liberty Caribbean’s crisis-management teams are focused on restoring critical communications infrastructure and supporting employee welfare. Smidts highlighted the foundation’s long-term commitment, noting, ‘Recovery will be a sustained effort. Beyond emergency supplies, we are dedicated to partnering with local organizations on rebuilding and resilience initiatives.’ Hurricane Melissa, which made landfall in southwestern Jamaica on October 28 as a Category 5 hurricane with winds reaching 185 mph, tied with Hurricane Dorian (2019) and the 1935 ‘Labour Day’ hurricane as the strongest Atlantic hurricane on record by wind speed. The Liberty Caribbean Foundation is calling for public and corporate support to scale relief operations. Donations will directly fund the procurement and delivery of essential supplies and support long-term recovery programs in the hardest-hit areas.
