– commends Guyanese support to Haitians
The PNCR has launched a ‘Shoes for Haiti project’, while also commending Guyanese for the support given to the Haitian people so far.
The main opposition party is also encouraging Guyanese to continue making contributions in cash and kind to bring further relief to the people of the earthquake ravaged country.
The party said in a recent release, “We are asking the general public to donate good shoes for both children and adults – which can be immediately worn.”
According to the PNCR, the shoes could be sent to Congress Place between 10 am and 6 pm and at the PNCR Office in D’Urban Street between 10 am and 4 pm.
Meanwhile, the party under the aegis of the Women’s Affairs Bureau of the Ministry of Human Services and Social Security, the National Congress of Women, the women’s arm of the People’s National Congress Reform, joined with a number of other women’s organisations in organising a ‘Million Dollar Walk-a-ton’.
Under the banner of the ‘Mothers of Guyana for Mothers of Haiti’, the Guyanese women expected to raise $1M for their sisters in Haiti through the march which was scheduled to start from Parliament Buildings at 6 am yesterday.
