On September 1st, Hurricane Dorian pummeled the Bahamas, causing massive destruction and devastation throughout regions of the island country.

Instead of rescheduling her trip, Kahley decided to do something unconventional. After inspiration from her younger sister Chloe, Kahley agreed that she and her bridesmaids would transform her Bahamas Bachelorette party into a mission trip to help thousands.
