Disaster Response: Hurricane Melissa updates and how you can help

Our thoughts are with everyone impacted in the Caribbean by Hurricane Melissa at the end of October. We have activated our disaster response and are collaborating with trusted partners to identify needs.

Global Links is shipping a 40-foot container of critically needed medical supplies to the Caribbean in November, and depending on the needs expressed by our partners on the ground, will adapt contents to what’s most needed after the damage from Hurricane Melissa is assessed.

Global Links offers supplies to United States-based individuals, groups, and organizations with established relationships to healthcare institutions and providers in communities with need around the world. The primary supplies available through Global Medical Partnerships are Medical Backpacks, Sutures, and Breathe Hope Nebulizers. These materials can be requested for disaster response situations. In cases where other types of supplies are needed, a detailed list of the materials and quantities can be submitted for evaluation by the Medical Aid team.
