Vineyard seeks to support sister island following volcanic eruption
The Sister Island committee, seen here in 2015, is working to provide relief to St. Vincent following a devastating volcanic eruption.
A Gofundme relief effort to support Martha’s Vineyard’s sister Island, St. Vincent, following a devastating volcanic eruption on April 9 seeks to send much-needed supplies to the hard-hit community.
Half of the funds from the initiative will also go toward providing financial support to the National Emergency Management Organization of St. Vincent and the Grenadines in its relief and rebuilding effort.
The La Soufriere volcano on St. Vincent, located in the Caribbean Sea, between Saint Lucia and Grenada, erupted on April 9, causing widespread destruction and forcing thousands of people to evacuate the northern part of the island.
