Flow and Rotary International have contributed a cheque of US$40,000 towards the rebuilding of the Bethel Methodist Pre-school.
Flow contributed US$25,000 and Rotary International US$15,000 dollars. The cheque was presented to Mr Kenn Banks during Rotary’s 40th Anniversary and Change of Board ceremony at Italia Restaurant on Friday evening, 29th June.
Mr Desron Bynoe, Manager of Flow in Anguilla, on behalf of Cable Wireless Charitable Foundation, said, “It is indeed a pleasure to give back in our deepest time of need. As part of our mantra, ‘connecting communities and transforming lives,’ we’re very happy to be able to contribute to the young ones because they are our future.”
In receiving the cheque, Mr Kenn Banks, on behalf of the Methodist Church, thanked both organizations for their generous contribution. He said the school was closed for some months after the storm and that the monies will help to repair it. He continued: “We’re always thankful to those who give. Christ said we should always give thanks. Also thanks those who have assisted the churches in all their difficulties and challenges after the storm.”
Altogether Flow has contributed a total of US$155,000 to two projects. The second project is for the refitting of the I.T Lab at the ALHCS with the necessary laptops and digital boards as well as a facelift to the school.
The Rotary Club will be assisting in overseeing the completion of the project.
