Hurricane Dorian has battered the Bahamas with the strongest recorded Atlantic hurricane in history. 185 mph winds sent thousands scrambling to shelters. The people are in a state of shock. The Abaco Islands and Grand Bahama, where the eye made landfall, are completely devastated.
Chabad of the Bahamas, through its year-round center on Nassau Island,
is on the ground providing essential relief to all those in need. A designated disaster relief fund has been established to assist those most vulnerable and in need. The most urgent needs are supplies such as clean water, food, clothing, medical supplies, first aid kits and generators.
Those who have been the most severely impacted will be helped to recover and rebuild. Supplies and funds are needed to ensure we can help as many people as we can, as quickly and efficiently as possible.
Please contribute or donate in any way you can. All donations to this fund will be used exclusively to fund relief and recovery efforts in areas impacted by the storm. You can donate at: relief.jewishbahamas.com/templates/articlecco_cdo/aid/4481120/jewish/Donate.htm
Lastly, if you know of any persons in need of emergency assistance, please contact us immediately.
