According to the release, Headmistress of the Lima Sands Nursery School Salome Persaud expressed gratitude to the volunteers for their assistance, while noting that the school has been in dire need of outdoor equipment for some time now.
The charity of the volunteers was not limited to just the young children in the area, but also extended to the adults of the community, who benefited from a medical outreach led by Dr. Karen Boyle at the Suddie Hospital, the aim of which was to educate on the importance of healthy lifestyles. Assisted by personnel at the institution, they were able to provide a number of services, including blood pressure and blood sugar testing.
“Through doing better and being better, we will make Lima Sands better,” was the theme of the project, which saw approximately 90 volunteers turning out to lend assistance. The volunteers represented RCGC, the Rotary Club of Georgetown Central, the Rotaract Club of Georgetown, the Leo Club of Essequibo and the Suddie Hospital.
