Jamaica’s Consul General to Miami, the Hon. Oliver Mair, is partnering with Bishop Henry Fernandez and the Dare to Care Organization to launch the One Love Jamaica Rebuild Initiative, a broad faith-based humanitarian effort designed to support communities devastated by the recent hurricane in Jamaica. The collaboration brings together diplomatic leadership, the South Florida faith community, and local advocates in a unified push to mobilize resources for families struggling to rebuild.

The initiative will officially debut at a press conference on Monday, November 17, at 10:00 a.m., hosted at The Faith Center, 5555 NW 95th Avenue in Sunrise.

A major highlight of the campaign is a large benefit concert scheduled for Saturday, December 6, 2025, at 7:00 p.m., also at The Faith Center. Grammy-nominated reggae gospel artist Papa San is set to headline the event, alongside a lineup of local and international performers that organizers say will be announced in the coming weeks. The concert aims to galvanize the South Florida diaspora and wider community around rebuilding efforts, with proceeds going directly toward on-the-ground relief in Jamaica.

According to organizers, the One Love Jamaica Rebuild Initiative will operate an expansive humanitarian response throughout November and December. Funds raised will be used to rebuild destroyed homes, supply food assistance to families experiencing hunger, deliver medical care to vulnerable residents, restore access to clean water and sanitation and support repairs to damaged infrastructure. They emphasized that the goal is not only to meet immediate needs but also to help communities regain long-term stability.

Supporters are encouraged to participate in several ways—by attending the December 6 concert, donating directly to the initiative, volunteering in relief operations or spreading awareness online using #OneLoveJamaicaRebuild. Organizers say every contribution, no matter the size, helps accelerate Jamaica’s recovery and sends a clear message of solidarity to families still navigating the aftermath of the storm.
