Paris Jackson Lends a Hand to Hurricane Relief Efforts in Puerto Rico

Paris Jackson Lends a Hand to Hurricane Relief Efforts in Puerto Rico



Paris Jackson is on a mission to heal the world.
The daughter of Michael Jackson, jetted to Puerto Rico on Friday to help distribute supplies to families living in Aguadilla — a town on the island’s northwestern tip. Aguadilla is getting less attention and resources, as it’s largely cut off from San Juan due to downed bridges and other road infrastructure issues.
During her trip, Jackson brought supplies to a school located in the town that is without electricity and running water. She also donated a backpack, personal water purifier and solar light for each child at the school, as most — if not all — of the students do not have electricity in their homes and are unable to complete their homework.

On September 20, Hurricane Maria — a powerful category 5 hurricane — made landfall on Puerto Rico, absolutely decimating the island and claiming many lives. Over a month later, there is still little power on the island and many are left without water to drink or bathe in, as well as limited food access and cell service.
