Hurricane Melissa, one of the most powerful storms to strike Jamaica in recent decades, left behind widespread destruction and heartbreak. Entire communities were devastated, homes were destroyed, and sadly, many families lost loved ones. In the aftermath, thousands of people have been left without electricity, clean water, or shelter — relying on the compassion and commitment of humanitarian organizations to begin rebuilding their lives.

Standing in Solidarity With Jamaica

In these moments of loss and uncertainty, solidarity becomes essential. The Fundación Leticia & Eduardo Azar is proud to stand with Chabad Jamaica, supporting their on-the-ground mission to provide urgent relief to those affected by Hurricane Melissa.

Our foundation’s contribution helps strengthen Chabad Jamaica’s efforts to reach families in vulnerable areas across the island, ensuring that aid arrives quickly and effectively. This collaboration reflects our shared belief that compassion and action must go hand in hand when confronting human suffering.

Essential Relief: Food, Water, Medicine, and Hope

Chabad Jamaica has mobilized an extensive local response to meet immediate humanitarian needs. Their volunteers are distributing food, clean water, clothing, medicine, hygiene products, diapers, and sleeping bags to individuals and families affected by the hurricane.

Beyond material assistance, their presence offers emotional support — bringing comfort, dignity, and hope to those who have lost so much. These actions embody the true spirit of solidarity that guides both Chabad Jamaica and the Leticia & Eduardo Azar Foundation.

A Shared Commitment to Humanity

For the Fundación Leticia & Eduardo Azar, supporting local organizations in times of crisis is at the heart of our mission. We believe that empowering those who are already embedded within their communities is the most effective way to provide meaningful, lasting relief.

Our partnership with Chabad Jamaica during this critical time reinforces our dedication to helping people overcome hardship with resilience, empathy, and faith. Together, we aim to bring hope back to the families who need it most and to remind them that they are not alone.

Continuing the Work of Compassion

While the immediate recovery phase is underway, the long-term rebuilding process in Jamaica will require ongoing effort and collaboration. The Leticia & Eduardo Azar Foundation remains committed to standing with trusted partners like Chabad Jamaica — organizations that translate compassion into action and bring light where darkness has fallen.

We extend our heartfelt admiration to the volunteers and leaders at Chabad Jamaica for their unwavering devotion to the people of Jamaica during this difficult time. Their courage and commitment inspire us all to keep believing in the power of kindness, community, and shared humanity.
