Kevin Sinclair Foundation plans food hamper drive for Sophia
The Kevin Sinclair Foundation will soon be extending its reach beyond the Ancient County of Berbice, as it plans to roll out a food hamper distribution drive in Sophia, Georgetown in the coming weeks.
Titled after its namesake, Guyana and West Indies all- rounder Kevin Sinclair, the Foundation had, a few short months ago, distributed school supplies and accompanying items to children of Angoy’s Avenue (Cow Dam) in New Amsterdam, where Kevin Sinclair lives.
Sinclair now believes there is much more he can achieve with the backing of his faithful sponsors.
“In those areas (Sophia), we’re looking to target 50 homes with some food hampers,” he has said. “The Kevin Sinclair Foundation is all about aspiring to make a difference. So, for me and my team, we’re looking to start off small, with 50 (hampers) to the less fortunate in Sophia area there.”
All-rounder Kevin Sinclair is pushing the boundaries when it comes to his charitable work
The all-rounder Kevin Sinclair would soon be lacing up his boots in order to represent the Guyana Harpy Eagles (GHE) in the CG United Regional Super50 tournament. He told this publication that while he is making small steps in terms of charity now, he is dreaming big and is hoping to make an impact not just in his home county of Berbice.
He divulged, “It’s another bold step we’re taking as a team in terms of reaching out to people in Guyana generally. As the founder, I just want to say it’s a dream come true to get this foundation up and running. You know, we just looking to touch lives and bring some sort of joy and belief to them that, if I can do it, you (they) can do it as well.”
Sinclair has already secured the support of a number of prominent business entities for the food hamper drive. Among these entities are Big B’s Restaurant, Cricket Zone USA, Genuine Auto Sales, Trophy Stall, Markie Construction Inc, and VNet Communications.
Sinclair’s last philanthropic act has benefitted in excess of 300 children in Angoy’s Avenue, New Amsterdam. He and long-time teammate Nial Smith recently donated a number of cricket supplies to their alma mater, Canje Secondary.
