Committed to building thriving communities across Jamaica

Standing with Those Impacted by Hurricane Melissa

Our hearts go out to everyone affected by Hurricane Melissa—families displaced, livelihoods disrupted, and communities now facing the difficult task of rebuilding.

Even in the midst of devastation, we hold fast to the truth that God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). We stand in faith with our brothers and sisters across Jamaica and the region, trusting that His grace will sustain and restore.

At Jalawelo, we are committed to walking alongside those in need—offering practical help, encouragement, and hope rooted in God’s love. Together, we will rise again, stronger and more united than before. Click the button below to make a donation to Jalawelo’s Melissa Relief Fund.
