Still recovering from the catastrophic destruction of Hurricane Maria — and now facing even more flooding and power outages — the people of Puerto Rico urgently need your help.

• More than 40% of the island's population lived below the poverty line last year, contributing to additional disaster-related vulnerabilities
• Over a week after Hurricane Fiona made landfall, one-third of households and businesses remain without power
• Thousands of Puerto Ricans still lack access to clean water
• Roads remain blocked by flooding and rock slides, leaving several communities isolated and without access to supplies

Donors can designate their donation to support:

• The community at large through the Hispanic Federation's efforts on the ground providing emergency relief services and essential supplies.
• Medical schools in Puerto Rico that help uplift health professionals to serve the pressing medical and healthcare needs of the community.
