Thank you to everyone who stepped up.

Today we delivered a full van of donated items to the Jamaican Canadian Association for the Hurricane Melissa relief effort. This was a true community lift and we want to extend our sincere appreciation to every single person who contributed.

The BTWA and the ATU Local 113 Black Caucus came together on this initiative, and your support made it possible. From essential supplies to monetary contributions, you helped us show real care for the families in Jamaica who need it most.

Thank you for standing with us and for reminding us what community looks like. Your generosity made a difference today 🙏🏾 #CommunitySupport #HurricaneMelissaRelief #StrongerTogether taken in Jamaican Canadian Association by @officialbtwa
