Denise Dias

The Ministry of Home Affairs Ministry hosted a ceremony on Monday to recognise the sterling contributions of Denise Dias, Founder of the Alicea Foundation and the Mothers in Black towards safer roadways.

The Alicea Foundation is a non-profit organisation founded in 1997 in memory of Alicea Gouveia, who died in a road accident. Alicea had opened a life insurance policy unknown to her parents, Denise and Dennis Dias, who used the money to start the Foundation. The Foundation later led to the formation of Mothers in Black.
