Securing Food Resources for the Marginalized

By Catherine Sealys | President & Lead Women Support

Raise Your Voice Saint Lucia Inc is a dedicated non-profit organization committed to providing essential support to vulnerable women and girls in Saint Lucia. Our mission includes maintaining an inventory of non-perishable food items, frozen chicken and sausages, baby diapers, and other critical supplies to ensure that we can respond promptly and effectively in times of need and during the hurricane season.

Currently, our ability to store these vital supplies is severely limited by inadequate storage space. This constraint becomes even more critical during the hurricane season when the demand for emergency supplies can surge. The lack of sufficient and secure storage hampers our capacity to stockpile the necessary items, thereby limiting our ability to respond to emergencies and support our community effectively, we need to:

Increased Storage Capacity

Adequate space to store a larger inventory of non-perishable food items, frozen goods, baby diapers, and other essential supplies.

Enhanced Organization

Better organization of supplies, making it easier to manage inventory and ensure that items are distributed efficiently and effectively.

Improved Accessibility

A central location that is easily accessible for the quick deployment of supplies during emergencies.

Climate Control and Security

Facilities that ensure the preservation of perishable items and the security of all stored goods.
