As Rihanna’s grandmother often told her: “It's the little things we do for each other that make a world of difference.” Thank you in advance for your generosity.
By investing in climate readiness, we're building resilient communities and reducing the impact of disasters.
We’re strengthening structures and services – like health clinics, schools and communications – so that no one has to lose access to water, food, shelter, healthcare, or education when the next big storm hits.

Rosalind Gittens
CLF is working with Principal Gittens at the Westbury Primary School to ensure that her school stays open after disasters for continued access to education. Getting students back in the classroom for learning as soon as possible is a priority. These schools, like Westbury, will become hardened shelters which can also serve as communication centers and centralized locations to deploy supplies in the event of a disaster.

dr. guzman
We are working with Profamilia in the Dominican Republic to build model clinics that include building hardening, the installation of renewable energy, and disaster response staging areas so that medical professionals like Dr. Guzman can provide continuous care. CLF has also created pre and post-disaster health toolkits which include guides and checklists in multiple languages so that similar climate-resilient clinics can be built across the Caribbean.

We all share this planet that we call home. Which means we are ALL on the frontlines of a climate emergency. So we all have a responsibility when it comes to this work—not just for ourselves. But for others. And for the world our children will inherit.

Wherever disaster strikes, health facilities are a critical component of emergency preparedness. We invest in organizations like the Barbados Family Planning Association (BFPA), led by Executive Director Anderson Langdon, so that they can be prepared to stay open during natural disasters and serve as sustainable disaster response hubs.
