How to Support Relief Efforts for St Vincent and the Grenadines
Hello Community,
The recent eruptions of the La Soufrière volcano on the island of St. Vincent has caused thousands of persons to be displaced, under emergency evacuation orders from the government of St Vincent and the Grenadines.
Persons have been transported from high risk zones, some to neighbouring islands. Evacuation efforts continue, as the eruptions and pyroclastic flows may continue for weeks, or even months.
The CCAWR counts Vincentians among our members and we stand ready to assist with efforts to help those impacted by the disaster.
The following organizations are collecting financial and material donations to assist those in need. Please click on the links below if you would like further information about any organization and their relief efforts. On behalf of Vincentians in the Region, thank you for your support!
