GuyBiz supports Guyana’s Cricket with generous donation of COVID-19 supplies
The Guyana Cricket Board on Wednesday (April 14) received a generous supply of masks and sanitisers from manager of GuyBiz, Ishwar Singh.
GuyBiz is a reputable procurement company located in Berbice, but targets customers across the length and breadth of Guyana. Ishwar Singh is himself a former senior inter-county player, and is the brother of Gajanand Singh, a former national cricketer.
The GuyBiz donation is a boost for the GCB
In brief remarks, the businessman explained that his company is very interested in the safety and welfare of the players, and that given the ongoing situation with the COVID-19 pandemic, he thought it worthwhile to make this contribution to the cricketers.
GCB Secretary Ronald Williams expressed gratitude to GuyBiz for the donation of COVID-19 supplies, and noted that this timely initiative would be of great assistance to the safety and welfare of the players.
Williams was particularly high in praise for Ishwar Singh, for this gesture in giving back to the game. He pointed out that the COVID-19 safety measures are now an integral part of the GCB’s planning process and, in this regard, the contribution by GuyBiz is most welcome.
GCB Assistant Secretary Davteerth Anandjit also expressed appreciation to Ishwar Singh and his company.
He indicated that such a contribution speaks volumes of the efforts being taken by those in the Private Sector to assist sporting organisations to carry out their responsibility of ensuring that sporting activities are conducted within the established COVID-19 guidelines, as laid out by the National Task Force.
Anandjit remarked that, with the recent rise in recorded COVID-19 cases, such a gesture from GuyBiz is praiseworthy, as it would help the GCB to reinforce the importance of the COVID-19 guidelines in the various cricket-related activities.
