LIFELINE Counselling Services donated food to the residents of the Red Cross Convalescent Home, in D’Urban Backlands, Georgetown, to mark its 15th anniversary last week Wednesday. Director of the donor organisation, Ms. Falicia Adams said the donation was made since orphans and other vulnerable children are among those for whom they cater.
“We are going to be doing a snack distribution and also sharing out a number of school items to the children and spending some quality time with them,” she said.
Adams said, while it was a simple exercise, it meant a lot to the persons participating in the food distribution as they all share a deep interest.
The one week Lifeline anniversary celebration began with a church service two Sundays ago and continued with a number of other activities, among them a walk-a-ton, a presentation to honour selfless employees and volunteers and disbursing soup and hygiene packages at the St. Vincent De Paul Centre.
