The PLP wishes to extend our support for the victims of the flood crisis in St. Lucia and St. Vincent. Our Caribbean neighbors and kin are in need of our prayers and assistance. Many Bermudians have ties to these nations and we must send the message that all of our global neighbors are equally as important.
We wish to reach out to the West Indian Association of Bermuda, to offer our organizational assistance. We are encouraging other local organizations to assist where they can, with items that have been identified as urgently needed.
Here is a list of supplies that may be contributed;
*Mattresses (Single and Full Size)
*Collapsible Water Jugs
*Clothing (New)
*Sheet Sets
*Construction Plywood
*Toiletries (Toothpaste, Soap, Toothbrush, Deodorant Etc.)
*Towels
*Baby Diapers
*Hygiene Kits/Comfort Kits
*Cleaning Kits (Mops, Buckets, Power Wash Equipment, Soap Powder, Disinfectant)
*Generators
*Cots
*Refrigerators
*Reusable Sheets
*Drapes
*Pillow Cases
*Disposable Pillow Cases
*Disposable Sheets
*Mattress Covers
*Paper Sheets
*Toilet Paper Rolls
*Paper Towel Rolls
*Children Disposable Diapers
*Housekeeping Cleaning Supplies
*Furniture
As Bermuda is an associate member of Caricom, we would implore the OBA government to extend every form of assistance to our Caribbean neighbors.
MP Walter Roban has been appointed to act as the PLP's coordinator for this cause. Over the next couple of days he will provide instructions on where these items may be delivered.
He may be reached at [email protected]
