The staff of SBM Offshore have continued their support of Food for the Poor (FFTP) (Guyana) Inc’s Bright Smile, Bright Future Project.
A SBM release on Thursday stated that staff representatives handed over oral healthcare products to boost the project, which aims to provide essential oral health care support to 600 primary school-aged students in the Matarkai Sub-District, Region One.
The handover ceremony which was held on Tuesday, February 27, underscored the SBM Offshore Guyana team’s dedication to aiding vulnerable communities. Staff from the company previously assisted the initiative in 2023 in Baramita by donating 200 children’s oral hygiene kits.
According to the release, each of the 600 primary school-aged students in the Matarkai Sub-District will receive an oral hygiene kit “meticulously curated” to promote proper dental care practices. The kits include essential items such as toothbrushes, toothpaste, facecloths, and oral hygiene literature, providing children with the tools and knowledge they need to maintain good oral health habits.
FFTP (Guy) Inc CEO, Andrea Benjamin, expressed her gratitude to SBM Offshore staff for their continued support. “It is with great pleasure that I extend my sincerest gratitude to staff of SBM Offshore Guyana for their unwavering support and commitment to Food for the Poor (Guyana) Inc. and our efforts to enhance the lives and well-being of vulnerable families. The company and staff have once again extended its generosity to the organization by supporting our Oral Hygiene Project (Bright Smile, Bright Future). This initiative will not only transform smiles but also foster healthier and happier futures for these children”, she said.
