As you all may be aware, many islands and the coast of the United States were hit by a violent hurricane, Irma. I generally lend my efforts to any fundraising event which is in support of those in need. On rare occasion, however, I feel implored to do more. This is one of them.
#
BARBUDA, the sister island of ANTIGUA was massively affected... Irma damaged or destroyed 95% of the structures on Barbuda, including its hospital, schools and both of its hotels, it completely flattened some residential blocks while submerging others.
