He added the act of donating to the needy regardless of the amount would help to remind members of the associatio­n of their responsibi­lities to the less fortunate pupils.

“We want to inculcate a sense of responsibi­lity, love and concern among PAIS members for children, especially the disadvanta­ged children,” he said.

Samuel was accompanie­d by some members of the PAIS charity committee namely Pauline Panting, Laju Rina, Chrosper Kelly and Kanyan Badali at the cash presentati­on which was witnessed by the school ParentTeac­her Associatio­n ( PTA) chairman Linda Jalak.
