SummaryTogether We Rise, Jamaica (TWRJ) is a humanitarian fine art and cultural storytelling platform dedicated to supporting hurricane relief, disaster recovery, and community rebuilding in Jamaica. We use powerful Jamaican-inspired artwork and creative commerce to transform tragedy into long-term recovery, dignity, and opportunity.
Founded by Cornelius Colin McNab, a Jamaica-born Ivy League graduate and entrepreneur, TWRJ was created in response to the devastation caused by Hurricane Melissa. After the storm destroyed homes and livelihoods across the island, including his own family's home, Cornelius launched a grassroots GoFundMe hurricane relief campaign that raised nearly $17,000 in one month. That effort became the foundation for a larger vision: a social impact art platform where art funds rebuilding and resilience.
TWRJ curates and produces fine art, digital art, and collectible canvas prints inspired by real people, real events, and lived experiences following natural disasters in Jamaica. Each artwork reflects themes of loss, strength, faith, and renewal, capturing the spirit of the Jamaican people through emotional storytelling and visual expression.
Unlike traditional charity models, TWRJ funds recovery through art with purpose. A meaningful portion of proceeds from every artwork, print, and product sold goes directly toward rebuilding homes, restoring communities, and supporting families impacted by hurricanes in Jamaica. Every purchase becomes an act of participation in recovery.
Positioned at the intersection of Fine Art, humanitarian aid, and cultural preservation, TWRJ collaborates with artists, creators, affiliates, and partners who believe art can do more than decorate walls. Art can drive social impact, fund disaster recovery, and restore dignity.
Together We Rise, Jamaica is more than an art brand.
It is a Jamaican hurricane relief art initiative, a Caribbean fine art platform, and a growing movement proving that through creativity and commerce, communities can rise again after the storm.
