The Canada Premier Softball Cricket League (CPSCL) has made a financial donation to cancer victim Fiona Ali, who is battling with stage-four cancer.
The presentation was made on Saturday evening at the Kalypso Hut Restaurant in Mississauga, where a dinner and dance was held to raise funds for this 32-year-old female from Windsor Forest, West Coast Demerara in Guyana.
Events Manager of the CPSCL, Canada-based Guyanese Munir Bashir, and Treasurer Shabana Bashir were on hand to do the presenting of the cash.
Organiser of the event, Elaine Pooja, in her brief remarks, thanked the League for the donation. She informed that Fiona would be happy with this monetary donation, and would fight hard to win the battle against the disease.
