WSHC+B partners Marlon Hill and Alison Smith were recently featured in the Jamaica Observer for their efforts in providing disaster relief to Jamaica following Hurricane Beryl’s damage to the island.
Alison has mobilized support through WSHC+B, donating $5,000 to the Office of Disaster Preparedness and Emergency Management (ODPEM). The donation was presented at the well-attended annual Independence church service hosted under the patronage of Consul General Oliver Mair in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
Marlon, for his part, partnered with organizations such as the American Friends of Jamaica and the Global Empowerment Mission to gather vital relief supplies, including first aid kits, tarps, and canned goods. “Whether it was only one parish or the entire island, our people need us to organize and mobilize funds and resources to help them recover, heal, and rebuild their lives and their livelihoods,” Marlon said.
Both Alison and Marlon grew up in Jamaica and maintain strong ties to the island. WSHC+B is proud to support Marlon and Alison’s efforts. Their dedication and hard work exemplify the spirit of our firm and our commitment to making a positive impact in the communities we serve and beyond.
