The house, NAPS Georgetown Youth Coordinator Holly Adridge said, is one of the organization’s many projects aimed at aiding the less fortunate. Five children, whose mother died two years ago, and their father will be the recipients of the Sophia house. NAPS, according to Adridge, is a North American based organization which first surfaced in Guyana some time during 1996. The Sophia project was a joint effort by Georgetown and North American NAPS and the St. Thomas University’s arm of NAPS in the British Virgin Islands. The house will be completed today and handed over to the family.In photo, a team from the National Association for the Prevention of Starvation (NAPS) stands in front an unfinished house at Sophia.
