THE Women of Mission International (WOMI), Global Cultural Understanding and Economic Development (GCUED) and Overseas Medical Assistance Team (OMAT) are teaming up to roll out a month-long agenda for their ‘Mission Hope Guyana Project,’ which will kick off with the Know Your Purpose 2018 series, starting next month.
The series of interactive multi-generational events will include the Knowing Your Purpose Conference/Youth Summit, the Overseas Medical Assistance Team (OMAT) surgical mission, health fairs, feeding programmes and the introduction of the Inaugural Guyana BEST Gala. The majority of the events will unfold in Linden, Region 10.
In a joint press statement, the organisations said the events which will be executed under the theme “Stronger Together” will showcase the spirit of Guyana’s people at its best.
It was noted that the Know Your Purpose Conference and the Overseas Medical Assistance Team (OMAT) Health Mission will be conducted in Linden from July 8 to 15, 2018, in addition to the inaugural Guyana BEST Gala.
“This year’s event is of particular significance as it celebrates our 10th anniversary and coincides with the celebration of The Overseas Medical Assistance Team’s (OMAT) 25th year of loyalty in service to the Guyanese community and beyond,” the organisations stated in the release.
According to them, the Know Your Purpose agenda will reflect their commitment to forging deeper linkages, greater facilitation of Guyanese business participation, streamlining and enabling diaspora social investment efforts, as well as nurturing youth engagement.
“The conference will provide a platform for sharing the key concerns of Guyanese people who reside overseas and ensuring that our global and influential community has a real stake in the nation and its sustainability affairs,” they further explained.
Culture of Blessing Inc. is also supporting the Know Your Purpose 2018 series of events.
