Hurricane Fiona 2022

Hurricane Fiona made landfall with 85 mph sustained winds, wiping out power to the entire island.  Flash flood warnings remain in effect as emergency responders desperately scramble to save lives.  With more intense rain expected to produce mudslides and catastrophic flooding, the situation will become more tragic.  

In the Dominican Republic the storm has left more than 1 million people without running water, many without electricity and hundreds taking refuge in shelters.

Thousands are in desperate need of food, safe drinking water and shelter. With your generous support we can help meet these needs.
