BEVERAGE giant Banks DIH has, once again, come forward as one of the main sponsors of the planned Linden Town Week activities for the celebration of the township.The company’s Outdoor Events Manger, Mr. Mortimer Stewart was in Linden, along with another Banks official, Mr. Mike Fung, to present a cheque to assist in the financing of this year’s events.

The presentation was done in the Linden Town Council Chamber at Mackenzie against a backdrop of the Banks GT Beer logo, where Ms. Janella Harry received the cheque on behalf of the Linden Town Week Secretariat.

Also present were Linden Town Week Coordinator, Mr. Keiron Williams and Banks DIH Linden Branch Manager, Ms. Shondel Easton, who presented the donation.

Williams remarked: “It is very interesting for Banks DIH coming on board and contributing in such a meaningful way. Banks DIH has always been one of the companies that has expressed commitment to support Linden Town Week and similar activities. What we are committing to is to allow not only for the environment for them to market their products as a company but to participate in the Town Week process.

“Outside of that is to allow for companies like Banks DIH to be part of that accountability process, where Banks DIH would have handed us a cheque and we have to demonstrate that we are utilising those funds for the purpose intended, as well.”

Ms. Easton said: “We are in the process of installing lamps in the beautification and lighting and branding of the market area and, additionally, nine floodlights are being sourced for the Mackenzie Sports Club, as part of our commitment, which is more than a million dollars.”
