ST VINCENT APPEAL FOR HELP!!!!


St Vincent has an estimated population of 110,940 on the eastern Caribbean Island. On the 8th April 2021 the La Soufriere Volcano erupted after forty years of being dormant. Several major explosions have occurred since then. Between 16,000 -20,000 people have been evacuated from the eruption area and the numbers are rising every day. Vincentians are being placed into shelters, and neighbouring islands such as St Lucia and Barbados. There are currently 80 schools and government buildings set up to provide shelter. The majority of these people have lost their homes, livelihood and animal stock. Experts warned the eruption can go on for weeks or even months and it is not known to what extent before it settles down.

Being born and bred on the island and from the red zone village of Sandy Bay where everyone has been displaced and evacuated to shelters. I know there is a long way to go, however every little helps to those who can assist at this time of the crisis.

We would welcome donations of goods/products as well. It is our intention to get as much needed supplies to the people in all the shelters on the Island as this could go on for some time. 

Thank you for your support and kindness at this time.
