Hurricane Dorian has been recorded as one of the worst storms in history, it made landfall on Sunday 1 September 2019 as a Category 5 hurricane wreaking destruction and devastation across the beautiful islands of the Abacos and Grand Bahama.
The Horizon Fund is currently working with ‘Every Child Counts’, a school in Marsh Harbour, Abaco which was severely damaged by Dorian.
The fund will be used to help rebuild and restore the buildings needed to get the school up and running by September 2020.
ECC is a school for special needs students, with a vision to foster a mentality where people of different abilities are accepted and integrated into their community to the best of their potential.
