Urgent Support for Jamaica After Hurricane Melissa
Stabilizing families, securing communities, and delivering critical infrastructure in the wake of Melissa.
Hurricane Melissa didn’t just damage property and take lives — she tore apart and decimated entire communities. Families are displaced. Homes, churches, clinics, and schools have been wiped out. Roads are cut off. Power and water systems are crippled. Thousands of Jamaicans are now living day-to-day without the safety, structure, or stability they once had.
The need is immediate and overwhelming. Those affected cannot wait months for relief — and many cannot even wait weeks. Beachhead exists to bring practical, scalable support that reaches affected communities as fast as possible in conjunction with funding from domestic and international partners.
We work side-by-side with the Government of Jamaica, parish leadership, local responders and international governments as well as disaster response and rapid-deployment modular facility experts to restore safety and order in the places Melissa has devastated. Whether a small town or community needs temporary shelters or a massively affected parish like St. Eizabeth requires multiple scalable 1,000–5,000-person operational bases with medical facilities, our systems are engineered for speed, dignity, and resilience.
RELIEVE capabilities:
- Emergency shelters for families who lost everything — modular shelters, tents, and safe layouts that bring protection and order to communities shattered by Melissa.
- Medical and health support where clinics are gone — triage structures, treatment tents, and field-ready spaces for Jamaican and international medical teams.
- Power and lighting for communities still in the dark — generators, light towers, and temporary distribution where the grid remains down.
- Clean water and safe sanitation — showers, toilets, wash stations, and purification support to prevent secondary health crises after Melissa.
- Secure storage for relief supplies — weather-protected depots for medicines, food, equipment, and donated materials.
- Temporary operations centers — structured spaces for GOJ, parish councils, NGOs, and international responders to coordinate effectively.
If your community or organization has been affected by Hurricane Melissa and needs urgent support, Beachhead can help stabilize conditions and create safe, organized capacity in weeks, not months.
