On September 13, 2024, The Saudi Fund for Development (SFD) and the Government of Saint Lucia signed contracts with two joint ventures involving two Saint Lucian firms in partnership with two Saudi Arabian firms to complete the reconstruction of St. Jude Hospital in Augier, Vieux-Fort.
A release from the Office of the St Lucian Prime Minister said that the signing is an important step forward for transferring health services from the retrofitted George Odlum National Stadium, back to St. Jude Hospital, which was damaged in a fire in 2009.
