Chairman of trustees Cenio Lewis Social Share
The UK-SVG Friendship Trust has teamed up with the St. Vincent Co-operative Bank Limited as its local partner to assure the framework for the disbursement of its EC$ 800,000 La Soufriere Volcanic Eruption Recovery Assistance Programme.
The UK based charity has engaged the bank due to its long-standing commitment to the country as one of the oldest indigenous banks, the organisation stated in a release.
The “Penny Bank” with its strong roots in local communities will act to ensure that all funds spent locally are accounted for and that the programme delivers for its intended beneficiaries.
