Background and figures as recorded in the CIA World Factbook.
English and Irish colonists from St. Kitts first settled on Montserrat in 1632; the first African slaves arrived three decades later. The British and French fought for possession of the island for most of the 18th century, but it finally was confirmed as a British possession in 1783. The island's sugar plantation economy was converted to small farm landholdings in the mid-19th century. The Soufriere Hills Volcano erupted in 1995, devastating much of the island; two thirds of the population fled abroad. Montserrat has endured volcanic activity since, with the last eruption occurring in 2013.

They are different things, done by different entities, and one is never a route to the other.
Roarcry · the church
A donation to the congregation. It is not repaid, earns nothing, and carries no claim on anything. Roarcry is not a registered 501(c)(3), so give as a gift rather than for a write-off.
A gift named for Montserrat is a restricted gift: recorded against Montserrat and spent there. If it cannot be spent there within a year it is pooled into the general fund and spent wherever it is needed most. That is a term of the gift, said here so that giving is agreeing to it.
Investment Fund, LLC · the issuer
A subscription for Class B units. It is at risk, it is not tax-deductible, it is not a donation, and you can lose all of it. Open only to verified accredited investors.
One fund covers every country on the map, on one set of terms. No country has its own vehicle, its own minimum or its own return.
The church is not the issuer, not a guarantor and not a party to any subscription. No donation to the church confers any interest in the fund.
This site publishes no safety assessment of its own. Conditions change faster than any page, so these link to the governments that issue advisories and revise them.
