From Doyle Guides:
The Marine & Yachting Association of Grenada (MAYAG) is coordinating with Grenada’s National Disaster Management Agency (NaDMA) on efforts. Yachts with donations can now bring them directly to Carriacou. After Ours / Frog’s restaurant in Tyrell Bay is being set up as a community center with a community kitchen and day care, and is accepting and organizing relief supplies for distribution.
Great care should be taken on approach and when anchoring as there is debris everywhere and sunken boats. See the sailors PDF map of Carriacou and Petite Martinique with nautical information created in 2020 here.

From Hope Fleet and the Seven Seas Cruising Association:
Hope Fleet is collaborating with the Seven Seas Cruising Association (SSCA) to provide essential aid to the islands affected by Hurricane Beryl. Funds are currently being raised to procure supplies, which will be delivered by private vessels to those in need. This initiative leverages the unique capabilities of boats to access areas that may be inaccessible by air or commercial shipping.
Hope Fleet and SSCA have a combined network of private boaters already in the vicinity ready to transport critical aid directly to affected areas. To make a donation or for boaters who wish to get involved, please visit https://hopefleet.org/hurricane-beryl.
