The Humanitarian Mission Guyana Inc in partnership with its donors has recently made two separate donations to victims of the recent fire in Port Mourant, Corentyne, and to female victim of domestic violence, also from the Corentyne. 

The mission yesterday handed over $50,000 worth of school items and $11,000 in groceries to a Port Mourant family whose home was destroyed in a fire two Fridays ago. The fire, suspected to be of electrical origin, left Angela Doman, her three daughters, niece, brother and mother without a home of their own. 

Suresh Sugrim, President of the Humanitarian Mission Guyana Inc, stated that the mission valued education and therefore saw the need to donate items to ensure the four children return to school at the earliest. “Education is power,” Sugrim said yesterday.
