The National Emergency Management Organization (NEMO) recently received 1,440 Emergency Food and Hygiene kits from CARI-ON SVG, a Toronto based organization consisting of a group of Vincentian organizations as well as individuals in the Toronto Area. This is the second shipment of supplies that the group has sent to SVG in recent months. In September 2020, 40 cots were received by NEMO SVG for use in their emergency shelters, when the need arises.
The newly arrived goods valued at over Cdn$30,000.00 were obtained with the assistance of Global Medics, a registered Canadian Charity that provides disaster relief to large scale catastrophes around the world and also carries out humanitarian capacity building programs in post-conflict nations.
Ms. Michelle Forbes, Director of NEMO expressed gratitude on behalf of the government and people of St. Vincent and the Grenadines to CARI-ON, for contributing the supplies to the people of St. Vincent and the Grenadines.
