Star Party Rentals became the latest entity to pledge support to the Petra Organisation, organisers of the Busta Soft Shoe Football Tournament which kicks off tomorrow, at the Georgetown Football Club
(GFC) ground.
During a simple ceremony which was conducted in the office of the donor yesterday, Representative Robert Joseph made the presentation to Co-Director Troy Mendonca in the company of fellow staffer Kesheke Washington.
