THE Alliance For Change as part of its AFC Cares Initiative, on Monday made meaningful contributions to two of Guyana’s scholars who will be pursuing studies overseas.

Fatima Karim, who is Guyana’s top 2016 CSEC performer gained acceptance into Stanford University, California, United States, was donated a state-of-the-art computer to aid in her endeavours; along with Ricardo Jordan whose accommodation at the University of Technology in Jamaica was supported for the new academic year 2018-2019.

In making the presentations at the party’s Kitty office, Leader of the AFC, Raphael Trotman, in the presence of Party Chairman, Khemraj Ramjattan and other members congratulated the students and stressed the importance of quality education to build a country. He reaffirmed the AFC’s commitment to giving support when it can, stating that both students are ambassadors for their peers and for the country, and admonished them to work hard and return to serve Guyana.

The AFC Care Initiative over the years has addressed some of the community’s most pressing needs such as disaster relief, humanitarian work and study aid to name a few components.
