Neal & Massy makes financial donations to 21 entities
TWENTY-ONE organisations in Demerara, Essequibo and Berbice received financial donations from the Neal and Massy (Guyana) Group of Companies at a presentation ceremony last Wednesday.
In the N&M staff facilities at Ruimveldt, Georgetown, Group Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Mr. Deo Persaud said the recipients have made valuable contributions to help the less fortunate in Guyana and he lauded the representatives of the beneficiaries, who attended, for their commitment and dedication.
Persaud told them, “We started this exercise last year, presenting financial assistance to twelve organisations and, this year, we have increased that number to 21. I want to assure you that it will continue. I wish to thank you for your continued commitment and dedication.”
Those who benefitted included three entities each from Essequibo and Berbice and the others from Demerara.
In addition, the Cheshire Home was presented with fire extinguishers at the function, which coincided with the N&M Group’s 43rd Anniversary, which will be celebrated on September 16.
Persaud mentioned the Group’s recent contributions to agriculture, health and education, which included a multi-million dollar ‘Model Farm’, initiated in collaboration with the Ministry of Agriculture.
