Today, I reach out to you on behalf of these resilient souls from St. Patrick\u2019s and St. Andrew, whose livelihoods have been shattered by the devastating impacts of Hurricane Beryl.<\/p><p>Simply Pure Agroprocessing (SPA), proudly owned and managed by Grenadians Marlon St. Louis and Dawn Williams, has been at the forefront of supplying the world with the finest soursop fruit. But now, our focus shifts from not just sustaining but reviving our community as Hurricane Beryl has ravaged the farms we cherish, leaving a path of destruction where there once was prosperity.<\/p><p>The once thriving fields that supported over 31 farmers have seen their yields plummet drastically due to the cruel hands of nature, from droughts to this merciless storm. These farmers, who normally harvest up to 5000kg per acre, now struggle to gather even 1000kg. The urgent need to clear, restore, and replant cannot be overstated.<\/p><p>We are calling on you, our global family, to open your hearts and lend your support. Contributions can make a significant impact in various vital areas:<\/p><ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>General Farmers Clearing and Cutting Program:<\/strong> Providing tools and equipment to clear debris and make land accessible again.<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Sour Sop Farming Programme:<\/strong> Helping to restore and replant fallen soursop trees, ensuring that this vital crop does not disappear from our tables or our exports.<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Youths in Value Chain Support Programme:<\/strong> Investing in our future by aiding youth in creating sustainable, high-quality agricultural products, thus securing a place for them within the agricultural value chain.<\/li><\/ul><p><strong>How You Can Help:<\/strong><br>Your donations can be the lifeline our farmers desperately need. Contributions can be made via Simple Pure Agriculture on the contact number or email provided on our letterhead. Your support will not only help rebuild farms but also restore hope and livelihoods to a community determined to rise from adversity.<\/p><p>Together, we can rekindle the spirit of resilience and ensure that our farmers are not only surviving but thriving once more. Your generosity will plant the seeds of recovery and growth for generations to come.<\/p><p>Thank you for your unwavering support and belief in the strength of our community.<\/p><p>Warmest regards,<\/p><p>Marlon St. Louis <br>Co-founders, Simply Pure Agroprocessing<br><a href=\"mailto:info@simplypureagroprocessing.com\"><strong>info@simplypureagroprocessing.com<\/strong><\/a><\/p><p>Together, we grow stronger.<\/p><div data-wp-interactive=\"core\/file\" class=\"wp-block-file\"><object data-wp-bind--hidden=\"!state.hasPdfPreview\" hidden class=\"wp-block-file__embed\" data=\"https:\/\/aihealthinsight.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Photos_Optimized.pdf\" type=\"application\/pdf\" style=\"width:100%;height:600px\" aria-label=\"Embed of Photos_Optimized.\"><\/object><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-20f73338-43ac-453d-a380-8f48e1a004d3\" href=\"https:\/\/aihealthinsight.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Photos_Optimized.pdf\">Photos_Optimized<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/aihealthinsight.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Photos_Optimized.pdf\" class=\"wp-block-file__button wp-element-button\" download aria-describedby=\"wp-block-file--media-20f73338-43ac-453d-a380-8f48e1a004d3\">Download<\/a><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>#Farm Support #beryl# # Grenada #Sourspo Subject: Urgent Call for Support: Help Rebuild and Revive Our Farming Community in the Wake of Hurricane Beryl.
