SIMILIAR SENTIMENT ALSO GOES OUT TO JAMAICA AND OTHER PARTS OF THE CARIBBEAN IN DISTRESS TOO - WHERE WE CAN OFFER SUPPORT WE MUST. ONE LOVE, NICKY, CULTURE PROMOTIONS Dear friends, You will all be aware of the devastation wrecked upon certain parts of the Caribbean recently, in particular the tiny island of Grenada. Of the 100,000 inhabitants, almost ALL, some 80-90,000 people are either homeless or at the very least roofless!! The island has been laterally wiped out by hurricane Ivan. The only thing left standing are the people! our Mothers , Fathers, Brothers and Sisters. It has been estimated that some US$ 1000,000,000 will be required to rebuild Grenada!! Where will this money come from? United States ? Germany? United Kingdom? I don't know. What I do know is that right now, this very moment, the people of Grenada are struggling to survive with little water, NO food, NO electricity, Major flooding and Mass homelessness!! Any of you who have been keeping up with the news will know that this is NO exaggeration. YOU & I can do our little bit to help! I am asking that we visit our cupboards for tinned and dry foods, those able to afford a little bit more, purchase a few extra items at the supermarket this weekend or visit the Cash & Carry / Wholesalers. Lots of us have tools in our sheds or attics that we will never use, these simple tools will help rebuild a country. However little it may appear to you, someone in Grenada will receive it with open arms. Each and every one of us has something we can contribute. Fill a box or bag for immediate dispatch to Grenada via the Grenada Disaster Relief Fund. Look in your cupboards , garden sheds, attic! Don't let those forgotten items go to waste! Pack them right away and drop your box of to any one of the Receiving Stations listed below. PRELIMINARY NEEDS Tents, ground sheets tarpaulins, tinned food dry food,tin openers, rice, tinned milk, bottled water, juices, torches,batteries, matches,candles, bedsheets,blankets,airbeds, pillows, soap, bath towels,toilet paper, toiletries, hand tools,saws hammers, shovels spades folks,screwdriver, pliers, tin snippers, rope, nails,petrol,chainsaw,medical supplies.
