WCK's Relief Team is on our way to Mexico to assess food and water needs after the strongest hurricane to ever hit the country caused catastrophic damage. Hurricane Otis made landfall just after midnight on Wednesday as a Category 5 storm. Otis slammed the tourist destination of Acapulco and all communication from that region is down, according to Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador. WCK Relief Team members are en route to assess the communities’ needs for food and water, and will determine if more support is needed.
