Oranjestad, St. Eustatius – In response to the humanitarian crises in St. Vincent due to the devastation created by the active volcano, Adra St. Eustatius through its relief program together with the Community Services department of the SDA church organized a donation drive. This event started on April 18th and continued until May 2nd, 2021. To facilitate the transportation of collected items a 20 ft container was acquired, with the help of Duggins Supermarket.

As there are still persons and organizations that are eager to make donations. Adra St.Eustatius would like to inform the public that it is no longer possible to ship items to St.Vincent as shipping options are limited therefore any item received after the closing date will be stored and reserved for the assistance of the less fortunate of future disasters at home or aboard.
