Linden charity donates to Speightland fire victims

The Linden Fund Trust donated a number of items including foodstuff and clothing to a Speightland/Lower Kara Kara family that lost all their belongings after an early-morning fire gutted their home.

The Trust is the first independent group to come to the aid of the Narine family since the incident. Chairperson of the Trust’s Social Welfare Committee Lorraine Butcher on Tuesday handed over the items valued about $100,000 to Mahendra Narine.

Butcher said as more stuff becomes available it would be handed over to the family of seven.
