Jamaica Hurricane Relief – Together We Can Make a Difference
The devastating hurricane that struck Jamaica has left families without homes, resources, and vital supplies. In this time of crisis, Croydon BME Forum is standing with the people of Jamaica — coordinating local efforts, collecting donations, and bringing our community together to provide real, practical support. 💚💛🖤
Here you’ll find volunteering opportunities, fundraising events, and the latest official updates from the Jamaican High Commission. Over the next few days, we’ll continue to update this page with new ways you can get involved, donate, and help rebuild lives.
Every act of kindness counts — whether you give your time, contribute financially, or share this campaign with others. Together, we can bring hope and relief to those who need it most.
👉 Join us. Support Jamaica. Make a difference.
