As you all may know our beloved island was lashed with some heavy rains over the past two “strongs” and many of our brothers and sisters have been terribly affected. Many public infrastructure, live stock and agricultural produce have been destroyed. A formal appeal has been made via the Jamaica Consulate in NY for assistance for our beloved island and her inhabitants.
Kind hearted people who are willing and able are being asked to donate clothes, bed lining, canned food, agricultural products, monetary donations (made payable to the Jamaican Consulate- memo flood victims) and any other useful item that you can afford to donate.
A number of shipping agents in the NYC area have made pledges to ship the donations to Jamaica free of charge and will also serve as a drop off point. A number of those agents are:
