A poverty-stricken man of Stewartville, West Coast Deme-rara will soon be moved from his dilapidated shack into a brand new house that the Men on Mission (MoM) initiative of Region Three is constructing for him.
Vernon Vincent Gray has been living in impoverished conditions for several years now. A member of his church felt he deserved a better life and recommended him to MoM for a house. He is elated and thankful to the MoM team because their effort will help to change his life. The wooden house is equipped with a huge bedroom, a washroom and space for dining and living rooms.
This is the first project for MoM in Region Three and the secretary, Halim Khan, told Stabroek News (SN): “You see where this man was living? This would be like a palace for him. Some people would have had a goat pen or a fowl pen much better than where he is living.”
