KFC Guyana Director of Marketing, Sadia Strand said: “At KFC Guyana, we are committed to fostering the growth of Guyana’s youth through sports and culture. Team sports build character, foster healthy sportsmanship, encourage teamwork and boost self-confidence and independence. Vurlon Mills is an excellent coach who goes above and beyond to make positive changes in his students’ lives by making football as accessible as possible. We are thrilled to be able to support VMFA in their mission of providing a safe and fun environment for children to explore their love for football starting with the KFC U8 Football Funday.”
