Harkishun supports “Cricket Gear for Young and Promising Cricketers in Guyana” project

Former Cumberland, East Canje Berbice resident and now resident of the USA, Ravin Harkishun, has provided cash support for the project “Cricket Gear for Young and Promising Cricketers in Guyana”.
The cash provided by Harkishun will be used to purchase one pair of batting gloves to be added to the list of cricket gear for this initiative, which is a joint effort of Kishan Das of the USA and Anil Beharry of Guyana. These have expressed their gratitude to the donor and promised to continue to serve cricket in Guyana.
Harkishun has said he is delighted to be part of this initiative, and will continue to contribute over time.

The aim of this initiative is to provide cricket gear free of cost to young and talented cricketers in Guyana. The project is seeking new and used cricket gear, which would then be distributed across the length and breadth of Guyana.
Total cricket-related items collected so far are: cash for first aid kit and one pair of batting gloves, two pairs of cricket boots, twelve pairs of batting pads, twelve bats, nine pairs of batting gloves and four cricket bags.
Sixteen young players from Essequibo Coast, Pomeroon and the East Canje area have already benefited from a junior gear bag, five bats, six pairs of batting pads and four pairs of batting gloves.
Two clubs in the Pomeroon will benefit from two used bats.
Talent spotting will be done across Guyana, along with guidance from club leaders to identify the players. Players must be in school and be disciplined. Players above school age would also be considered.
Das and Beharry would like to thank Imran and Javed Khan of West Indian Sports Complex, Option Group, Bish Panday of P and P Insurance Brokers, Sean Devers, Travis Simon, Hilbert Foster of RHTY&SC, Ariel Tilku, Aaron Beharry, Devon Ramnauth, Sherman Austin, Teddy Singh, Leana Bachan and Imran Saccoor, Romash Munna, Ravi Etwaroo, Ravin Harkishun, Surendra Harkishun and Vishal Mahabir.
More distribution will be done as soon as gear arrives from the USA.
