Outreach

The need for assistance spans the entire island. ventaja Educational Services and Together Hyde Park, two nonprofit and fiscally sponsored (502c3) organizations are committed to LOVING the people of Jamaica in tangible ways. We are working to provide essential support during this critical time.

Supporting Jamaica’s Recovery

Uniting for Relief, Rebuilding for the Future.

In the wake of the devastating hurricane, Jamaica’s population of nearly 1 million has faced unprecedented challenges. No area was left untouched and the damage is mind boggling and heartbreaking.
