Hurricane Irma Update

Shane Engel • September 7, 2017

Our partners in the Caribbean:

Hurricane Irma is causing major devastation across the Caribbean and is barreling in towards the United States. Irma, a Category 5 Hurricane, has reportedly caused 6 deaths in St. Martin and has completely destroyed buildings in Barbuda. HOPE worldwide's partners in St. Thomas, Puerto Rico and Dominican Republic have been in communication, but all are bracing themselves for impact. Chantal Cornley, one of HOPE worldwide's newest employees, is in Haiti helping the HOPE ww Haiti to recover from Matthew and prepare for Irma. Let us keep them all in our prayers.
