Hurricane Melissa was the most powerful hurricane to lash the island since record-keeping began 174 years ago.

After the devastating October storm that killed at least 75 people across the northern Caribbean, Shaggy, 57, mobilized relief immediately for Jamaica, shuttling supplies from Miami and hand delivering them to the worst-hit areas.

At first light on Wednesday, the coastal communities of southwestern Jamaica bore the devastation of being in the direct path of Hurricane Melissa.

"They breathe life into every season, and now it’s our turn to help give some of that life back," the resort wrote.

Hurricane Melissa has devastated Jamaica, causing severe damage to fishing and farming communities. Prince Davis, a fisherman, discovered his boat and home were destroyed while he was in Nicaragua.

For one Belfast man, it’s personal and he’s doing everything he can to help his family and friends feel at home again.

The organization Friends of Disabled Adults and Children is sending medical supplies down to Jamaica following Hurricane Melissa.
