Thursday 5 May 2011 – St. Lucia Electricity Services Limited (LUCELEC) jump‐started the National Community Foundation’s 2011 Telethon with a thirty thousand dollar contribution on Thursday, May 5. LUCELEC made the donation during the launch of this year’s edition of the National Community Foundation (NCF) annual telethon to raise funds in support of its various programmes.
In making the presentation LUCELEC’s Corporate Communications Manager Roger Joseph said the company makes an annual contribution to the NCF to assist with responding to requests for medical assistance. In that regard, such requests received by LUCELEC are forwarded to the NCF for attention. Mr. Joseph also praised the NCF for the outstanding work it is doing in pursuit of its mandate and for the excellent record of transparency and accountability in the use of the funds that it raises and disburses.
According to Joseph, the NCF’s theme “Caring by Sharing” is consistent with LUCELEC’s “Power of Caring” through which the company donates to educational, sporting, charitable, religious, medical, and other non‐profit institutions and agencies whose mandate it is to improve the lives of vulnerable groups in the society. The launch of the telethon was held at the NIC Conference Centre. This year’s telethon is scheduled for May 29 at the Gaiety on Rodney Bay and will include an international food fair.
