Dozens of women in Region Two on Wednesday came out smiling from the Anna Regina State House after receiving the Ministry of Human Services and Social Security’s one-off cash grant.
The grant, worth $50,000, was distributed by the Ministry in collaboration with the United Nations’ World Food Pro-gramme with 139 beneficiaries from Region Two who represent 91 per cent of the targeted distribution for the Region.
The persons that received the grant included participants who recently completed the Ministry’s Women Innovation and Investment Network (WIIN) initiative. These were interviewed and were qualified for the grant once they met the criteria.
