These joint efforts, within the broader national and international response mechanism, continue to help communities reconnect and rebuild after the storm.
Through close field collaboration with other humanitarian actors, our teams were also able to provide phone charging services alongside connectivity access, helping people reconnect despite ongoing energy challenges.
TSF teams supported hundreds of residents who had been unable to communicate since the cyclone. Most are using the connectivity to reach family members, access information, read the news, or exchange on social media.
Two weeks after Hurricane #Melissa, TSF continues supporting the response efforts in #Jamaica.
