MEMBERS of the Men on a Mission (MoM) have stepped forward to bring hope and relief to a family in distress.
In the wake of the devastating fire that destroyed the home of 44-year-old Lavern Charles on March 23, the compassionate team has committed to rebuilding an elevated two-bedroom concrete structure to ensure that the affected Rose Hall woman and her family have a safe and secure place to call home once again.
This initiative is a shining example of community resilience and unity, demonstrating the PPP/C government’s unwavering commitment to supporting those in need and uplifting vulnerable families.
Through swift action and dedicated resources, this reconstruction project will not only restore a physical dwelling but also rekindle hope, dignity, and stability for the family.
Charles of Lot 249 Fourth Street Swamp Section, Rose Hall Town, said that the fire, which is of electrical origin, completely destroyed her family’s house while everyone was at church.
Charles, a food vendor at the Rose Hall Town Market, said that it is very hard situation to have to deal with.
“It is very hard at this time but we are trying to get by,” she said, noting that she resided at the location with her elderly parents and daughter, three.
After learning of the situation, contractors attached to MoM immediately decided to come on board to rebuild the structure in concrete for the family.
The project will be carried out through the MoM Initiative by contractors; Dauren Deonarine of Cardinal Enterprise; Mark Papannah of Polo Construction; Rondhall Lewis of RL Contracting; Devindra Persaud of DP Valcon; Kevin Abdulla of AE&N General Contracting; Feroz Ulla of Feroz Construction Services; Rishal Singh of Rishal’s Construction & Maintenance Service; Michael Samlall of Michael Samlall Construction; and Shunta Davie Ruffudeen of SDR Construction.
Based on information gathered, work commenced at the location Thursday.
Charles after meeting with the contractors, said, “We feeling much better that work has commenced on the house.”
Additionally, the mother of one will receive a gas stove to help her restart her business as well.
