Digicel donates teaching aids to educator providing free lessons to Laing Avenue youngsters
Ms. Florance Rowe and some of her students pause for a photo during Digicel’s visit.
Kaieteur News – Since March 2022, Ms. Florance Rowe has been providing free after-school education to approximately 65 youngsters on Laing Avenue and volunteering her time on a full-time basis. Her commitment to this effort recently caught the attention of Digicel Guyana through social media, and the company jumped at the opportunity to help her. Digicel team members recently paid a visit to deliver some much-needed materials including a whiteboard, backpacks, and stand fans to support Ms. Rowe and the students with their day-to-day classroom activities.
The children, Kaieteur News understands, were just as excited to meet the Digicel Guyana team too.
Upon accepting the donation, Ms. Rowe expressed her gratitude for the donation while noting that they give her the motivation to keep going. “When we get attention like this, it signifies that people are paying attention to what we’re trying to accomplish, and it gives me the drive and encouragement to keep going…”
Digicel has pledged to assist youth development through education and sports over the years, and it has done so by developing and building excellent community relations.
