“As Red Light Holland continues its productive talks with both the highest levels of the SVG government and members of the Vincentian business community in the emerging plant-based wellness industry, we are immediately doing our part to support them at this critical time by powering this initiative. Having spent a significant amount of time recently in SVG, I grew very fond of the beauty of this nation and its people. In the wake of this devastating volcano, we recognize the magnitude of the task facing the government, now and in the months ahead. #SVGStrong allows us to rise together to help meet this challenge and help the people directly affected,” said Todd Shapiro, CEO and Director of Red Light Holland. “I implore everyone to step up and join us in SVG’s time of need and please go to www.SVGstrong.org for more info.”
#SVGStrong is powered by Red Light Holland and it is further supported by SVG Pioneer Licensees Mera Life Sciences, Ajori Health and Wellness, and SVG Biomed – the psychedelic subsidiary of Headland West Indies.
Donations will be administered by Headland West Indies’ team in St. Vincent and the Grenadines under the supervision of the National Emergency Management Organization (NEMO) and with the facilitation of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Foreign Trade through its consulate in Toronto, Canada.
The companies’ commitments include:
- EC$53,000 (CDN $25,000) donation by Red Light Holland
- An additional EC$32,000 donation from Mera Life Science, SVG Biomed, and Ajori Health and Wellness
