First Lady treats Hope Children’s Home to World T20 Trophy interaction

First Lady Arya Ali brought beaming smiles to children from the Hope Children’s Home when she treated them to an interactive opportunity with the iconic ICC Men’s T20 World Cup Trophy in the presence of local tournament ambassadors, who were also at State House in Georgetown on Wednesday morning.
The First Lady expressed her delight in bringing joy to the children from one of the orphanages that have been adopted. She indicated that those children would probably not have gotten a chance to be up close to the silverware and interact with local cricket stars. And she urged the Guyanese people to support the trophy tour, which continues today with two public engagements: at St. George’s Cathedral from 13:00h, and at the Kingston Seawall Esplanade from 17:00h.
More importantly, the First Lady is urging people to turn out in their numbers to witness the matches that would be played at the National Stadium at Providence, EBD. Guyana will host five group matches from June 2-8, followed by the second semi-final on June 27.
Physical ticket sales are ongoing at the Guyana Cricket Board’s office on Regent Road, Bourda, Georgetown.
