What happened

Imagine nearly half of everything your country built, vanishing in a single afternoon.

When Hurricane Melissa made landfall in October 2025 as a record-tying Category 5 storm near Black River, it shattered communities across Jamaica. The news cameras have moved on — thousands of families are still rebuilding from scratch.

Why a song

Music has the power to heal, build bridges and restore hope

“Jamaica, The Land We Love” is a charity single recorded by a collective of gospel artists, each note fuelled by love for Jamaica. It’s more than a song — it’s a rallying cry, and a way for every one of us to be part of the rebuilding.

100% to recovery

Every pound raised goes directly to grassroots, community-led recovery on the ground.

Buy the single. Donate what you can. Share it far and wide. Together we can turn a moment of devastation into a lasting lifeline for families in Parottee, St Elizabeth.

💧

An Atmospheric Water Generator

A state-of-the-art machine that pulls moisture from the humid Jamaican air to create potable water — no plumbing, no mains required.

🚰

10,000 litres a day

Enough potable water to sustain roughly 45 households every single day, ending the wait between water-truck deliveries.

☀️

Off-grid solar power

Specialised solar panels and heavy-duty battery storage to run the AWG 24/7, fully independent of Jamaica’s unstable grid.

🚢

Shipping & deployment

The full cost of shipping, clearing and physically installing this self-contained water system in the Parottee community of St Elizabeth.

10,000 L / day

Clean water, pulled from thin air

In Parottee, St Elizabeth, in the Black River area, the water system has collapsed. Families depend on trucked water — and between deliveries they are left without a reliable supply for drinking, cooking, washing, sanitation and livestock.

The Jarrett Foundation is deploying the largest AWG available, paired with its own solar power and battery storage, to give a whole community clean water every single day.

  • No plumbing or mains connection needed
  • Powered entirely by off-grid solar + battery
  • Serves around 45 households continuously

Already on the ground: emergency radios

As power lines came down and the country went dark, The Jarrett Foundation raised funds for solar and wind-up emergency radios — now in the hands of families across Jamaica.

  • Room light and flashlight
  • AM/FM/weather radio for vital updates
  • Solar and wind-up (kinetic) charging
  • USB power bank to charge a phone

When the grid went down, something as simple as charging a phone became a daily struggle — many people had to walk miles just to find somewhere with power. This device changes that: it charges a phone directly from the sun or by winding it by hand, so families can call for help, reach loved ones and stay informed without leaving home. For communities cut off from communication, that has been a genuine lifeline.

No power, no problem. No signal, stay connected.

Who we are

Small charity. Big, life-saving solutions.

Jarrett Foundation Jamaica was established in 2012 and works through its local team on the ground. When Melissa struck, our long-standing presence meant we could act immediately.

Dr Pearl Jarrett

“The Jarrett Foundation may be small, but as we always say, ‘we likkle but we tallawah.’ We listen to what people actually need, we think practically, and we get things done. This Atmospheric Water Generator is not just a machine — it is a lifeline. It can give a whole community clean water every single day, without waiting for a truck and without relying on broken infrastructure.”

Dr Pearl Jarrett Group CEO, The Jarrett Foundation
Bishop Daren Larmond

“Water harvesting is a big issue in Parottee, St Elizabeth, because they don’t get water from the main and have to depend on trucked water. Many still don’t have a roof to put water-harvesting systems on. It would have to be the biggest AWG available to supply water to about 45 households.”
