Hurricane Dorian has left a trail of destruction in the Bahamas that Prime Minister Hubert Minnis is calling “one of the greatest national crises in our country’s history.”
One of the greatest national crises in our country’s history.”
– Hubert Minnis, Prime Minister of the Bahamas
According to the United Nation’s World Food Program (WFP), food may be required for 14,500 people in the northern Bahamas’ Abaco Islands and for 45,700 people in Grand Bahama, based on preliminary assessments by representatives of Caribbean nations, the WFP and other groups.
“Those who have lost their homes and livelihoods will need our prayers in the weeks and months to come. It is going to be a long and difficult road for many” says international programs director Barbara Macdonald.
Anyone who would like to make donations to assist with the response and recovery efforts can send donations directly to any of Canadian Foodgrains Bank members below. These members are already coordinating their efforts with local partners in the Bahamas.
