Region 5 Chamber extends support to Rosignol Day-care Centre

… in commemoration of World Charity Day

The Chamber of Industry and Commerce of Region Five (Mahaica-Berbice) has joined the rest of the world in celebrating the International Day of Charity, by sponsoring two toddlers enrolled at the Immaculate Heart of Mary Catholic Church Day-care Centre in Rosignol.
A monetary donation was handed over during a presentation ceremony on Tuesday, aimed at assisting with administrative expenses of the two selected

children.
Adding to that, the contribution was intended to aid in the operations of the day-care centre so as to satisfy its obligations to the children at the cchool.
Presenting the cheque to the daycare’s administration was Council Member of the region’s Chamber, Tage Singh, along with the President of the organisation, Imran Saccoor. On the receiving end was Jacqueline Isaacs, who was at the time in the presence of a few children currently attached to the Day-care Centre.
Saccoor, in brief remarks at the ceremony, welcomed the undertaking by the day care and called on other organisations to support this cause, especially since some of services offered are non-profit and for the overall benefit of the community.
Adding to that, the institution provides a further option for single parents rather than being forced to leave their children in unsafe environments while they go to work.
Given that the school caters for children in need of special care, the Region Five Chamber of Commerce was delighted to have been part of this initiative.
Moreover, the Chamber said this donation is as a result of its strong belief that an investment in youth represents an investment in the future.
The Immaculate Heart of Mary Catholic Church Day Care Centre at the moment houses a total of 35 children, all of whom are between ages six months to three years.
