Airlift to Jamaica, Teams Serving Across Three Island Nations

A third DC-8 airlift  has arrived Jamaica carrying Disaster Assistance Response Team (DART) members and relief supplies, including hygiene kits and shelter materials.

A THIRD AIRLIFT LANDED IN JAMAICA WITH SHELTER SUPPLIES AND OTHER RELIEF JULY 6.

Samaritan’s Purse is now operating across three island nations in the Caribbean: Grenada, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, and Jamaica. The ongoing response includes transport of more than 50 tons of aid to provide shelter, clean water, and medical care. More than 50 Samaritan’s Purse staff are working on the ground in these locations alongside local church partners to bring relief to Hurricane Beryl survivors.

We have been rushing relief to the Windward Islands and beyond since July 2 following the deadly July 1 landfall of the Category 4 storm on Carriacou. Its multi-day path of destruction–strengthened for several hours to Category 5– ravaged additional Caribbean islands on its way toward the Gulf of Mexico.

WE ARE PROVIDING ISLANDERS WITH CLEAN DRINKING WATER FILTERED THROUGH OUR DESALINATION SYSTEM IN CARRIACOU.

Please pray for the many hurting people across multiple communities who are grieving loved ones and total loss of property. Pray also for our DART staff–including disaster personnel, medical teams, and chaplains–as they minister to suffering residents in the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
