After Melissa: care packages, water tanks and medical teams

How our volunteers responded after Hurricane Melissa — care packages packed and delivered, community water tanks installed, and medical volunteers in the hardest-hit communities.

31 Jul 2026

In the weeks after Hurricane Melissa our volunteers packed and delivered care packages by the van-load, installed community water tanks and ran water distribution points, and our medical volunteers set up clinics in some of the hardest-hit communities. Construction volunteers followed to start on roofs and homes.

Thank you to everyone who packed, drove, treated, built and gave. If your community still needs help, use the Get assistance page.
