Incident details

Island-wide advisory. November 28, 2025 – JPS Foundation, through its Volunteers On Location To Serve (VOLTS), joined recovery efforts in Catherine Hall, St. James, last Thursday (November 20), lending support to the Holiness Christian Church and delivering relief aid to residents. The church, like homes and businesses in the area, experienced severe flooding when high levels of water and mud washed into the property, damaging furniture, musical instruments and other valuables. Senior Vice President for Customer Experience and Commercial, Pia Baker, shared that the energy company has been involved in several relief efforts, bringing aid to some of the hardest-hit communities in Western Jamaica, following the passage of Hurricane Melissa. “The recovery currently taking place has a technical side and a humanitarian side for us at JPS. While our teams give it their all in repairing and rebuilding sections of the grid, our volunteers have been busy helping residents to clear debris from their spaces and delivering care packages,” she said. “Our brothers and sisters have suffered tremendous loss and we are doing all that we can to play our part on the road to recovery.” Sophia Lewis, He
