Puerto Rico Rises has been working tirelessly since it was first announced that Hurricane Irma would pass through the island. In adherence to our mission, which is: to guarantee that the supplies are distributed directly into the hands of those that needed the most, we have distributed more than 5 million pounds of supplies, built 26 houses, have 97 houses scheduled to be built and have helped 100,000 people around the island with primary supplies and commodities.
