St. Vincent Volcano Relief Fund

Volcanic eruptions on the island of St Vincent have displaced about 20% of the Caribbean island’s population, as a UN official warned of a growing humanitarian crisis.

Between 16,000 to 20,000 people were evacuated under government orders before the "La Soufrière" volcano first erupted on Friday April 9th 2021, covering the lush green island with ash that continues to blanket communities in St Vincent as well as Barbados and other nearby islands.

We are looking for donations to help pay for basic supplies to help the displaced residents now living in shelters. Items that we aim to purchase include: water, canned foods, rice, pasta, flour, sugar, juices, toothpaste, toothbrush, deodorant, soap, feminine products, first aid equipment, toilet paper, medications, diapers, masks, wipes, sanitizers, cleaning supplies, etc.

As this is currently an ongoing active eruption, the displaced residents are in need of these supplies immediately.
