Hurricane Melissa Relief Efforts
Standing with Our Families. Rebuilding with Love.
Why This Matters to Me — and to Efitmi
Hurricane Melissa has left a deep impact on families across Jamaica, including people close to my own heart. Here at Efitmi Lifestyle, our mission has always been about supporting women, mothers, and families—helping them find strength through life’s storms, both figurative and literal.
This time, the storm was real.
Some of my coworkers, friends, and neighbors have had their homes damaged, belongings destroyed, and their daily lives turned upside down. One of them, a single mother of three, lost her roof entirely. Moments like these remind us why community matters—why we choose to show up for each other, especially when life knocks us off our feet.
Efitmi is built on faith, compassion, and practical support. So in this season of rebuilding, we’re committed to doing our part and inviting you to join us.
How You Can Help Families Affected by Hurricane Melissa
Whether you’re in Jamaica or overseas, there are meaningful ways to support ongoing relief efforts.
1. Support Local Families Through Efitmi’s Relief Initiative
We’re directly supporting mothers and families who suffered major losses from Hurricane Melissa — including damage to roofs, homes, furniture, appliances, clothing, and children’s essentials.
You can donate using the link below, or visit our Amazon Registry to purchase specific items these moms urgently need. The registry includes essentials like toiletries, cleaning products, clothing basics, personal care items, and household items to help them rebuild.
You’ll receive clear updates so you can see exactly how your contribution is being used and the families it’s helping.
2. Donate to Reputable Government and International Relief Organisations
If you prefer contributing through established national or global agencies, here are trusted options actively responding to Hurricane Melissa:
Office of Disaster Preparedness & Emergency Management (ODPEM – Jamaica)
The official government agency coordinating Jamaica’s national disaster response and recovery.
Donate: supportjamaica.gov.jm (Government-run and verified.)
Project HOPE – International Humanitarian NGO

3. Share the Message
If you are unable to give financially at this time, sharing this page or our GoFundMe link is just as impactful. The more people who see this, the more families we can help.
