The National Bank of Anguilla held its 24th Annual Christmas Tree Lighting and Children’s Gift Giveaway on Tuesday, December 18.
The Christmas Message was delivered on behalf of NBA by its Manager of Human Resources, Mrs.Lyndell Simpson. “It is indeed a privilege for us here at the National Bank of Anguilla, to be hosting this event in its 24th year,” she stated. “That we have been doing this for 24 years, is indicative that we at NBA take very seriously our commitment to our community and to our young people in particular. It is really heart-warming that so many children have made it here.”
Mrs. Simpson spoke to the children at length about the meaning of Christmas and urged them to keep in mind the spirit of love, sharing and peace it offers to all mankind.
The short opening ceremony was followed by the distribution of gifts by members of staff and the appearance of “Santa Claus” – another traditional treat for the children.
