HURRICANE MELISSA UPDATE
The NOSTR and Bitcoin community support has been incredible! Thank you, thank you, thank you to everyone that supported and continues to support, it means everything. ❤️
Large parts of my country are complete disaster zones 💔 we are working to put every satoshi to work in the most transparent way possible.
Jamaica is responding quickly, and already several official relief efforts are spun up:
-
Support Jamaica
Support Jamaica – Official Disaster Relief & Recovery Portal
Join hands with the Government of Jamaica. Support national disaster relief, locate shelters,
and stay informed on Hurricane Melissa updates.
(Jamaica government)
- DART and USRT teams from the US to help find missing ppl
- World Central Kitchen is already on the ground providing food
- Private companies are helping provide supplies and restore connectivity (Starlink, Amazon, etc.)
However there are still gaps in the relief effort that we will continue working to identify and highlight, and put the rapid funding towards.
The main concern today is getting FOOD to displaced residents of the multiple devastated communities on the western and northern parts of the island.
I will continue collecting information and posting updates here and on the btcpayserver relief effort page (
http://melissa.islandbitcoin.com) as we get them.
Also praying for our friends in Cuba and the Bahamas, stay strong.
One Love.
#Hurricane #Melissa #Jamaica
