WHAT WE DO
Standing with the
Caribbean in times of crisis.
Windward Aid provides immediate and sustained disaster relief and recovery across the Caribbean.
OUR MISSION
Our mission is to work hand in hand with the Caribbean, responding to those in aid, building back together, and staying for tomorrow.
OUR VISION
A Caribbean that grows stronger with every storm and natural disaster - prepared, resilient, and never left to rebuild alone.
OUR PURPOSE
Our purpose is to restore a nation, one community at a time because no island should weather the worst alone. We are one region, one people, one family - when one island falls, we all feel it.
“We believe that sustainable recovery is achieved through empowering local voices, fostering resilience, and building long-lasting relationships. Together, we strive to create a safer, more resilient Caribbean for all.”
Our pillars of work
RESPOND
First through the door.
When disaster hits, speed saves lives. Response is our promise of urgency - mobilising emergency relief within hours, not weeks, and reaching the communities that other organisations take too long to reach, or do not reach at all.
RECOVER
Others leave. We don’t.
Recovery is what happens once the emergency is over and the headlines have moved on. It’s the slower, harder work of rebuilding education, livelihoods and a sense of normality.
RESTORE
Restoring lives.
Restoration goes beyond bricks and repairs. It’s about restoring and preserving homes, culture, roots and lineage - reconnecting communities to what makes the Carribbean home.
PREPARE
Turning vulnerability into resilience.
Disaster shouldn’t mean starting from zero every time. Prepare is how we help communities plan and build for whats coming next - so the next storm finds a stronger, more ready Caribbean.
