In true Christmas spirit, The Massy Foundation recently donated funds to The Cotton Tree Foundation, The T&T Association for the Hearing Impaired (Dretchi) and the St Dominic’s Children’s Home.
Gregory Sloane-Seale, director of The Massy Foundation, donated cheques at a ceremony held recently at the Massy Group, Park Street, Port-of-Spain.
He congratulated the organisations for their excellent work, noting they “provide to our most vulnerable citizens a lifeline which gives them hope for a better future.”
Josephine Emmanuel, general manager of the Cotton Tree Foundation, which helps residents in St Ann’s, thanked the Massy Foundation.
Their donation will help provide educational opportunities for over 100 children between the ages of 3-13 years. Every year, the foundation also provides training for about 40 parents in parenting skills and Internet safety.
Dretchi was also grateful. The group, located on Wrightson Road, Port-of-Spain, provides hearing evaluations and hearing aids free to children and adults.
The donation for the St Dominic’s Children’s Home will help care for many children there.
