🌪️🇯🇲 In the wake of devastating Hurricane Melissa, our friends, family and many communities in Jamaica need our help more than ever. We’re proud to partner with Lions Clubs International — the world’s largest service-club organisation, with some 1.4 million members and about 48,000 clubs across more than 200 countries.

In Jamaica alone there are approximately 27 Lions clubs working to serve their communities.

Together with us at CARSSU, they have the deep reach and local networks to deliver aid where it’s needed most.

🙏 We invite you to join us — whether with a donation or by helping spread the word — so we can bring hope and relief to those impacted by this storm. Every little bit makes a difference.
