The Rose Hall Town Youth & Sports Club (RHTY&SC), on Wednesday last made a financial donation to Commonwealth Powerlifting record holder Vijai Rahim at its Area ‘H’ Office.
Apart from a cheque for $20,000, Rahim also received other items that will assist him in his day to day training.
RHTY&SC first Test cricketer Assad Fudadin handed cheque to Rahim, congratulating the champion on his achievement while urging him to remain committed and disciplined.
Club Secretary/CEO Hilbert Foster stated that he was elated to learn that a fellow Berbician was a record holder at the Commonwealth level via a newspaper article on Wednesday last, this prompted the Club to come to Rahim’s assistance the same day.
Foster told Rahim that it is sometimes hard to become the best but it is always harder to remain at the top and as such he would have to work harder, be more committed and to always remain rooted to the ground as success tends to destroy people’s humble ways.
The long serving Secretary/CEO pledged his club’s continued assistance to Rahim and his Coach Fazim Abdool and wished them more success in the future. He also pleaded for more NGOs and businesses in the Ancient County to assist Rahim in his quest to break the World record in his category.
Both Rahim and his Coach expressed gratitude to the Rose Hall Town Youth & Sports Club for its timely assistance and pledged to continue to make Berbice and Guyana proud.
RHTY&SC, Rahim stated is a role model organisation which he admires and he was grateful that the Club has come on board in support of his career.
