Hurricane Melissa's deadly landfall devastated Caribbean island nations—leveling homes, flooding cities, and stripping residents of essential resources.
Tragically, 102 deaths have been attributed to the storm. In Jamaica alone, there was an estimated ~9 billion dollars in damage, making it the costliest hurricane in the country's recorded history. UNICEF is supporting local governments to reach more than 284,000 children and address nutrition needs, access to safe water, sanitation, hygiene, and mental health support.

Special thanks to a heroic crew of the US Air Force 53rd Weather Reconnaissance Squadron’s "Hurricane Hunters", including Lt. Col. Mark Withee, who flew their specialized aircraft through the eye of the storm to gather life-saving information that satellites couldn’t deliver.
