Inside GiveDirectly's Hurricane Melissa Response

GiveDirectly’s Leith Baker and Camille Raguin take you behind the scenes of our rapid response to Hurricane Melissa in Jamaica. They share what worked, what didn’t, and how lessons from this response can help us act faster and better in future crises, across all our programs. You’ll also hear stories from recipients like Desilee and Ivorie, who used their funds to recover on their own terms. See more at givedirectly.org/jamaica. Planning a visit to Jamaica?
