How We’re Helping Jamaica

A portion of net proceeds from food sales at our CARIBBEAN FOOD STAND will support hurricane relief in Jamaica. We are hoping that some businesses in Luxembourg will match our donation.

Guests can also donate directly by:

• Cash or card (SumUp onsite) — receipts will be issued for donations made on site
• Bank transfer to Luxembourg Caribbean Carnival Association (reference “Jamaica”)
  Account Name: Luxembourg Caribbean Carnival Association
  IBAN: LU24 1111 7687 5025 0000
  BIC: CCPLLULL

Donor names and amounts will be acknowledged on our blog unless anonymity is requested.

In-Kind Donations

A second collection day will be announced shortly.

Accountability & Delivery

We have contacted Food For The Poor Jamaica, the Jamaica Red Cross, and Jamaica’s Ministry of Finance and the Public Service to select the most effective partner. We will request that our funds be directed specifically to the hardest-hit rural communities.

Two members of the Jamaican diaspora in Luxembourg will travel to Jamaica in December to help deliver and distribute donations.
