F&M donates Stihl F-160 Brush cutter to Fruta Conquerors FC maintenance
The input of corporate entities towards sports development cannot be ignored as it is such assistance that is responsible for the sustenance of most sports organizations. It was with this in mind that President of the Fruta Conquerors Football Club (FCFC), Wayne Forde, approached the management of Farfan and Mendes (F&M), 45 Urquhart Street, North Cummingsburg, for such assistance.
Mr. Forde gratefully accepts the gift from Ms Browne at the Farfan and Mendes offices.
The Fruta Conquerors President requested that F&M donate a brush cutter to facilitate the clean-up process of the club’s environment. On Thursday afternoon last, Mr. Forde traveled to the F&M offices where Marketing Manager (F&M), Onai Vasconcellos, accommodated the request while Customer Service Representative, Novella Browne, handed over one Stihl F-160 Brushcutter to Mr. Forde, in the presence of Secretary of the FCFC, Daniel Thomas.
Vasconcellos explained that his company received the request after expending the sponsorship budget. Nevertheless, the management decided to donate the instrument at cost price. He said that his organization has always been supportive of sports and his fellow executives recognize the importance of the football institution towards the development of young people. The F&M manager further committed to future support of the club.
Mr. Forde accepted the gift and said that it was indeed a timely gesture. He said that the equipment would be used to maintain the ground and general environment thus significantly reducing the Club’s overall expenditure.
He expressed gratitude to Vasconcellos and the management of F&M on behalf of the club executive and players as well as the Tucville community which experiences positive spinoffs from the Club’s activities.
