BATH SETTLEMENT, WEST COAST BERBICE – Last week the Aditya Kids Trust Fund Foundation commissioned the Aditya Kids Library & Resource Centre at Bath Settlement on the West Coast of Berbice.

Secretary/Treasurer of the organization Zulfikar Alli indicated that the facility was born out of a need within the Bath Settlement area and was established at a cost of approximately $1 million. According to him, there is another library at Number Eleven Village a short distance away.

President of the Aditya Kids Trust Fund Foundation, Narchand Mohan, of Canada, speaking at the ceremony said that the Aditya Kids Trust Fund Foundation is a non- profit organization, which has been involved in charity work since its establishment.
