Global Empowerment Mission Arrives in Jamaica
Global Empowerment Mission has arrived in Jamaica to set up warehouses filled with aid for residents impacted by Hurricane Melissa.
Kimberly Bentley, Director of Emergency Response, explained the plan to tackle this massive undertaking, stating:
We arrived prior to the storm so we could get all the paperwork and clearances in order so that way we could hit the ground running. The airports just opened up, so now that that’s taken care of, tomorrow we can go into the field and be sure that impacted areas have access.
The South Florida-based nonprofit aims to provide urgently needed aid to residents in Jamaica.
