AS the local authorities mobilise resources to provide relief to flood-affected residents in all 10 administrative regions, Regal Stationery and Computer Centre has donated $3.5 million in flood supplies to aid the Civil Defence Commission (CDC) in providing some redress to those adversely affected.
Manager of Regal Business Group, Telesha Ousman, on Saturday handed over the $3.5 million cheque to Deputy Director-General of the CDC, Major Loring Benons at the Muslim Youth Organisation on Woolford Avenue, Georgetown.
The donation to the CDC accumulated to approximately 530 cases of hand soaps, hand sanitizers, disinfectant sprays and multipurpose surface cleaners.
Ousman stated that the donation is to help fellow Guyanese recover quickly and safely from the effects of the flood. Ousman further noted that another donation will be done directly to the residents and farmers of Region Five.
She noted that it is the vision of Directors of the Regal Business Group, Ramnarine Krishna Hardyal and Mahendra Anil Hardyal, to see citizens have equal opportunities to live in comfort in their homes, adding that the business directors were pleased to assist the CDC and the government in their relief efforts and insisted that Regal is open to extending an arm where needed.
