Disaster and conflict relief.

We believe in a world where no one is without shelter after disaster.
Imagine losing your home and then being forced into a makeshift shelter. This is the reality for thousands of Jamaicans, where Hurricane Melissa has destroyed over 120,000 homes.

Thanks to pre‑positioned stock in Barbados, we've managed to respond quickly 👇
