In 2016, Caring Hands helped reconstruct George Washington Carver Academy after Hurricane Matthew. The school is running well and is now attempting to grow a sustainable garden of fruits and vegetables for the children. However, it does not have a sufficient water source to sustain the garden for the full year. To improve the water supply, Caring Hands provided funds to build wells in the mountains there so that water can be pumped and stored through the year at the school for both drinking and irrigation purposes.
