Covid-19 assistance for Island Dream Tours crew
Tropical greetings from Island Dream Tours. We hope that all of you are safe and healthy during these trying times. Here on the beautiful island of Ambergris Caye, we have been particularly hard hit by the Covid-19 pandemic. Our little island has been shut down to tourists since the end of March. As most of you know, most residents depend almost solely on the tourist industry for income. No tourists equals no income. Unlike other countries, there has been little to no government assistance and what organizations were able to help(food banks) have exhausted all of their resources.
Thru the first months of the pandemic, we had two cases initially and then no cases. The airport was going to reopen to tourists August 15th and there was a little bit of light at the end of the tunnel. Then our second wave hit. In a matter of a few weeks, we went from zero cases to almost 200 cases currently. So, we are now on our second State of Emergency and lockdown. With this comes again, no work available at all.
We at Island Dream Tours are asking you, our friends and family to help our Island Dream Tours family get thru these extremely difficult times by any donation/assistance you are able to provide.
100% OF ALL FUNDS RAISED WILL GO TO OUR STAFF TO HELP THEM SUPPORT THEIR FAMILIES DURING THESE DIFFICULT TIMES.
We look forward to the day when the borders will open and we can see all of your smiling faces back onboard Yolo.
Thank you so much for your consideration! Stay safe, stay well!
