These GIFs showing the recovery of SXM give us hope.

When Hurricane Irma visited our island last September, we weren’t sure what was in our future.

We froze for a minute, and then remembered how much heart and soul is on this beautiful island.

We are rebuilding and happy to be partnered with SXM Relief Project in the process.

The devastation this island faced was heartbreaking. But as we continue to rebuild, our hearts are slowly repairing. The scars will always be there, however.

At this point, the roads have been cleared allowing access to the island.

The roads by Orient Bay have been cleared. We look forward to the vegetation returning to fill these streets with life.

Our commitment to St. Martin is stronger than ever and we hope that you feel the same way. We will be sharing more information with you about the development of St. Martin and the changes to come.
