Dominica Red Cross begins Hurricane Matthew Haiti Relief Operation

​The Dominica Red Cross, with the endorsement of the Dominica Government is advising potential donors that cash donations for the Hurricane Matthew Haiti relief operation, can be made to the Dominica Red Cross-Disaster Relief Account (09655) 100-878-8 at the Royal Bank of Canada.
These donations can also be made at the Dominica Red Cross national headquarters on Federation Drive, Goodwill.
Meanwhile, Director General, Kathleen Pinard-Byrne, says they will advise on the date for the collection of non perishable relief items .

​Prime Minister Skerrit on Friday issued a call for businesses employing ten persons and more to mobilise a Hurricane Matthew Relief and Recovery Exercise within their individual establishments to assist Haiti and The Bahamas.
The two islands were both dealt a severe blow during the passage of Hurricane Matthew last week.
Pinard Byrne says in the case of The Bahamas, they are still conducting assessments of need. However, she says if persons wish to send cash to The Bahamas the Dominica Red Cross can facilitate that process.
