Hurricane Dorian has passed and devastated the NorthWest Bahamas, more poignantly the islands of Abaco and Grand Bahama, also causing severe flooding in Nassau, New Providence. Here’s a few ways you can personally help and give aid to those who are now homeless and victims of the category 5 hurricane.

Donations can come in the form of cash or the following material supplies:

  • Toiletries
  • Portable generators
  • Debris removal (shovels, rakes, wheelbarrows, axes, chainsaws)
  • Portable single and double burner stoves
  • Portable outdoor lights
  • First aid kits (sterile bandages/gauze/tape)
  • Baby’s diapers, wipes, bottles
  • Baby food, formula, cereal
  • Sanitary napkins
  • Flashlights/Batteries
  • Inflatable mattresses
  • Bedsheets
  • Blankets
  • Sleeping Bags
  • Thick waterproof tarps
