Thank you Natifa, we appreciate you doing this. Love and guidance

What a lovely lady. I'm sad for the people of Grenada and the adjoining islands. Unfortunately. Barbados has some damage also, but, it's not as catastrophic. I pray assistance will arrive on time before any further storms pass by, this being the season. God is Love.

Carriacou and petite Martinique island 98% severely destroyed!! Grenada main island got destroyed on the northern side which located closer to carriacou.

@Chrisc1644 it is not fake news, North = St.Patrick, West = St.Marks & St.Johns, East = St.Andrew these are the affected areas on the mainland. St.Patricks got the hardest hit in the mainland. Our sister islands Carriacou & Petite Martinique are 98% devasted by the passage of hurricane Beryl, they have to rebuild from scratch. This is factual news, get your information right before your emotional outburst causes negative consequences.

I am so proud of Nathifa Lewis. She was able to explain the confusion created by the anchors. Thanks for explaining. Mainland is safe but our sister isles that are damaged. Thanks Pix11 for rallying support for Grenada.

Are there locations in other states to drop off items?

Carriacou, not Grenada, the title should read.

[@br2431]

Stop the fake news! Grenada is not destroyed hardly any damage , it is the island of Carriacou and Petit Martinique which belong to a tri island nation including Greneda , but Grenada is not damage hardly

[@anniemc2968]

Lady when you say Grenada people think of the mainland. It was actually the dependencies.

[@user-tc2du4gk5g]

That statement re 98% of Grenada (or Carriacou) has been destroyed by Beryls is BLATANTLY Inaccurate! Several Roofs and Roof Sheeting have been blown off due in part to sub-standard Construction, and the sheer force of the Winds! However, the buildings have remained structurally intact before the passage of the Hurricane!

In GRENADA??? This is misleading.

All you could lie me live in Grenada and only in the north of

[@thomaskline]

Try facts! The main island Grenada took very little damage. The smaller islands Carriacou & Petite Martinique , 15 miles north were destroyed!
