BUSINESSMAN Shahab Hack who is an ardent supporter of youth development and community relations, donated several footballs, football gear and personal supplies to the Tiger Bay female football team, on Saturday, October 29, 2022.
The donation was delivered in Queen Street, Tiger Bay in the presence of the team coach Alpha Fletchman, captain Afena Baptiste, family members and supporters of the players.
Mr Hack, who has always been at the forefront of similar initiatives and usually supports the Guyana Police Force community engagements and youth development, mentioned that after attending the ‘Men on Mission Conference’, hosted by the President of Guyana, Mohamed Irfaan Ali, he felt a need to fulfil his corporate obligation and as such he decided to start with the Tiger Bay community.
He further added that he intends to have similar initiative throughout the country in vulnerable communities and plans to provide mentorship and guidance to the youths of those communities.
“My wish is to be able to play a meaningful role in their academic lives as well as sports so that each of these youths could realise full potential,” Mr. Hack said.
Baptiste expressed gratitude to Mr Hack for the timely and much needed supplies and noted that her teammates will surely be appreciative of this kind gesture.
