Hi, Friend, it’s Evan from the fundraising team at Project HOPE. I wanted to reach out to you personally because our last email was a critical update that’s even more urgent now. Hurricane Melissa has left widespread destruction in its wake across the Caribbean. Survivors of the storm need your urgent support!

In Jamaica, 77% of the country remains without power after enduring 185 mph winds, catastrophic flooding, and 30 inches of rain. In Cuba, the damage is being called “incalculable” as rivers overflow and landslides isolate communities. And in Haiti, more than 20 people have been killed by floodwaters that swept away entire homes. I can only imagine the devastation so many people — children, mothers, siblings, fathers — are experiencing as they navigate this new reality.

Project HOPE’s team is on the ground coordinating with local officials and assessing urgent health needs. But the scale of this disaster demands immediate action. Please, make an emergency donation now to help power Project HOPE’s response for families who have lost everything and to fuel our global mission to deliver urgent relief with lasting impact, wherever the need is greatest.

I am always in awe of the way our supporters continue to come through when the people we serve need it most. Thank you for your compassion and generosity.

Damage from Hurricane Melissa in Jamaica

Project HOPE is on the ground in affected areas, coordinating with local officials and conducting rapid needs assessments as people begin to reckon with the scale of the damage. Hospitals in the region are already overwhelmed, and essential medical services are at risk of disruption. Your support can help deliver urgent aid and supplies to affected communities — and ensures we can continue saving lives in Gaza, Ukraine, and around the world where the need is greatest.

Tragically, Hurricane Melissa’s destructive path continued over Cuba, bringing up to 20 inches of rain, 120 mph winds, and a 12-foot storm surge. And in Haiti, the storm’s heavy rainfall caused a river to burst its banks, killing dozens. Flash floods and the threat of landslides remain high across the region.

For families who have lost everything, your support can help us reach them fast. Please, make an emergency donation now to help power Project HOPE’s Hurricane Melissa response and support our lifesaving work worldwide, wherever the need is greatest.
