Hurricane Melissa threatens catastrophic flash flooding, landslides, and life-threatening storm surge in the Caribbean, with parts of Haiti and the Dominican Republic already experiencing deadly impacts.

During emergencies, every minute counts. As the world’s largest humanitarian agency, UN WFP is on the ground providing rapid response to natural catastrophes like Hurricane Melissa – including food and relief supplies to hard-hit communities.

WFP staff preparing food parcels in to prepare the response to Hurricane Melissa.

“We know from experience that the most vulnerable members of society – women, children, and the elderly – can be the hardest impacted by disasters so it’s critical that we’re able to reduce this as much as possible and speed up recovery,” said Lola Castro, WFP Regional Director for Latin America and the Caribbean. With your donation today, you can support WFP’s emergency response – including food assistance – and help reduce the storm’s impact on the most vulnerable communities.
