Sharda Veeren-Chand, DDL’s Marketing Director, was pleased to disclose the approval of the sponsorship.
GCF President Frankie Farley thanked DDL for its involvement and the important role of the company in the development of local chess saying, “Your generous contribution will be instrumental in making our vision a reality by helping to offset part of the costs associated with the implementation of the various planned initiatives,” Mr. Farley asserted.
