GT&T supports Region 6 programme for women’s empowerment

GT&T last week made a monetary contribution to the Region 6 Community Based Rehabilitation (CBR) Programme for an initiative aimed at empowering the women of Berbice.

In a release, the company said that with its support the CBR will embark on a craft programme for its female members.

The centre, it noted, has been serving the Region 6 community for over twenty years and this year the focus is on women with disabilities and or those with children living with disabilities and other special needs.

Mark Adams, Chairman of the Port Mourant CBR Centre, Region 6, was quoted as saying that the centre caters for the “disabled, handicapped and people with special needs.”

He added that “The centre offers educational programmes, care and general upliftment of their social welfare and personal well-being.”
