Dream Chasers urges Carver board to launch Hurricane Melissa donation drive

Dream Chasers said, “As many of you are aware by now, Hurricane Melissa struck Jamaica and the Caribbean as a catastrophic category 5 hurricane, leaving a trail of destruction and loss of lives. Many survivors now face an immediate crisis of no food, water, electricity, shelter, and medical care, resulting in growing desperation for aid. If you are yet to make a donation, we urge you to contact a charity of your choice and donate to victims of this unimaginable human tragedy. Your donations, no matter how small, will make a significant difference and go a long way to help feed, provide shelter, medicine, and food to those most affected, including children and the elderly. Hurricane Melissa brought great devastation to Jamaica and the Caribbean. As the human suffering continues, Carver has an opportunity to show leadership by helping those affected. To accomplish this, Dream Chasers encourages Carver’s CEO and board to urgently: Launch a Hurricane Melissa relief donation drive on the bank’s website and across all social media channels. Coordinate relief efforts with financial partners like JP Morgan, charities and religious organizations to drive efforts around logistics, cash, emergency medical and food supplies, hygiene kits, temporary shelter and other needs to help hurricane victims. Designate all 7 NYC bank branches as locations to drop food, toys, and other donated supplies.”
