Rebuilding After Hurricane Melissa: A Story of Loss, Courage, and Hope
When Hurricane Melissa roared through our community, it didn’t just tear apart buildings. It tore apart memories, security, and the quiet comfort of home. In its wake, 15 people stood among the ruins of the places they once laughed, cooked, prayed, and slept. Walls were gone. Roofs were scattered. And the life they knew had been swept away in a single night. But even in the middle of heartbreak, something powerful remained. Courage. These 15 survivors have shown a strength that defies the storm. They wake up each day choosing hope, even when the road ahead feels impossibly heavy. They carry the weight of uncertainty, yet they keep moving. They remind us what resilience looks like. Now, they need us. Every contribution helps rebuild not only homes, but the sense of safety and dignity that everyone deserves. A warm bed. A solid roof. A door that locks. A place to exhale after everything they’ve endured. This is more than recovery. This is a community lifting its people back onto their feet. Together, we can put these families back into homes where they can start healing, rebuilding, and dreaming again.
