IN support of Education Month, the Enterprise Youth Development Group (EYDG) has donated over 1000 books to students of the Enterprise Primary School.

Group president Samantha Sheoprashad observed that as the younger generation is rapidly developing, it is essential to see them with books in their hands, rather than drugs.
She emphasised that youths in Guyana need more encouragement to become academically successful.
Sheoprashad underscored the importance of reading as it builds knowledge for both young and old.
She pointed out that the EYDG has been promoting development in the area of Enterprise, advocating that reading and learning takes place in everyday life despite the circumstances.
“We are happy to be involved in such virtuous acts to share knowledge and interact with these youths,” she said.

Sheoprashad added that the children are the future and giving them books and encouragement to read will bring forth rapid changes within the community.
The children expressed their happiness and excitement to be the beneficiaries of the initiative.
The EYDG is one of the leading youth groups in Guyana, and pride themselves on their philanthropy.
The group is a non-governmental organization and seeks to recruit youths both in and out of the Enterprise East Coast Demerara community.
