GG Presents Gifts to Health Centres |
Contact: George Jude
Thursday, April 08, 2004 - Last week at Government House, Her Excellency the Governor General was able to demonstrate the commitment of St. Lucian residents overseas, with a presentation of toys, clothes and toiletries to Nurse Lawrence and three representatives from the communities of Anse-La-Raye, Roseau and Jacmel. Nurse Lawrence, who is in charge of the District, indicated that the items would be greatly appreciated and would go a long way towards alleviating some of the difficulties, which the recipients often encounter. Her Excellency was pleased to note that the donation came through the collaborative effort of the St. Lucia/Toronto Association, the Toronto SJ Alumni and Mrs. Christine Joshua, wife of the Consul General in Toronto. Her Excellency also stated that she hoped similar donations would continue from various associations overseas, as these donations contribute greatly towards assisting the less fortunate here at home. |
