Cat Island Disaster Relief - Hurricane Irene
We were heartbroken to learn of the devestation left by Hurricane Irene as it passed directly over Cat Island. Nearly one month later, many home have patched roofs, siding, windows, and doors but are still without electricity and basic supplies.
Epic Diving proudly donated money for the relief efforts which helped get a large supply of construction materials that would be needed in the wake of the hurricane.

Dr. Vincent Canabal of Epic Diving shows the head nurse some of the medical supplies that are being donated.
The staff was thrilled to get new supplies!
Shortly after leaving the island, we learned that some of the respiratory equipment and medication we left was critical in helping a child with smoke inhalation injuries.
