The three chosen to receive the cash donation are all twelve year olds attending Queens College, in Georgetown.

The Coordinator for the local chapter of the Edward ‘Screw’ Richmond Foundation in Linden, Mr. Kevin DeJonge, gave the children and their parents/guardians a background to the man who was Linden’s first national player and about his football prowess on the field and his achievements off the field.
He told them that even if they were not excelling in the field of sport they can be involved in becoming an administrator or even a physiotherapist. He told them that they should be proud recipients for being awarded the tokens for their excellent performances at the National Grade Six Assessment last year.
DeJonge said, “The overseas Chapter congratulates you and urge that this is an opportunity of a life time. All of you attending Queens College and you are representing a rich community in sports.”
