 The Banker's Association of St. Lucia has made another significant donation of learning devices to various schools across the island. The initiative was the culmination of the financial group's charitable and educational activities for Financial Information Month. We have more in this report from Herman DeMarc. Students and parents from 24-secondary schools across the island gathered at Tyranny Park to receive brand new laptops. The Banker's Association of St. Lucia collaborated with the Ministry of Education in identifying and supplying students in need of their devices to help a better facility to virtual education in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. According to the PRO of the Association, Gordon Julian, out of the numerous donations during the month of October, the donation was in fact the group's signature event. We are well aware that with COVID-19, it has exposed the vulnerabilities among us in terms of persons' inability to access online studies, online schooling, because of the absence of the relevant tools to do so. So the Banker's Association of St. Lucia, as we bring the curtains down on Financial Information Month 2020, we thought it was very important as part of our signature project to do something that is impactful, something that is significant, and something that is long-lasting. Chief Education Officer Dr. Fiona Meyer was present at the ceremony along with other officials from the Ministry. The officials thanked the Banker's Association for its contribution to the education of the nation's children and encouraged students to make the best use of the devices. It is unfortunate that negative news is so much more important than positive news. Today, I want you to stand tall and to say that I want my face to be shown. I want to appreciate what's happening here. I want to be on television receiving a resource that is not only for fun, it is going to help me ensure that I can meaningfully contribute to myself and to my family. Parents lauded the commitment of the Bankers to their corporate social responsibility. I would just like to say thank you to the Banker's Association for this worthy distribution of computers to the students, and I know each student here is going to put it into very good use. Though this donation was the culmination of activities for Financial Information Month, officials from the Banker's Association of Seendusha says it will not be their last. The collective group of financial institutions will continue to work together to give back to the people and communities it serves. From the Government Information Service, Khomeini Mark reporting.
