THE Fallen Heroes Foundation in collaboration with Zara Realty Group of companies presented 27 computers, stabilisers and printers recently to the families of those who died in the line of duty.

The Commissioner’s Conference Room was improved with warm hearts and happy faces as it was announced that those children of the slain would now benefit from yet another token of remembrance and appreciation from the Force.

President of the Foundation, Reverend Dr. Murtland Raphael Massiah in opening remarks, thanked the Zara Realty Group for the good gesture.

Commissioner of Police Leslie James emphasised the dedication of the members of the foundation and commended the team comprising of religious and business leaders for their undying dedication.

Former Commissioner, Seelall Persaud, subsequently corroborated the sentiments of the top cop as he further described the work of both the foundation and the Zara Group as selfless.

February last, the foundation, which is the brainchild of Seelall Persaud, pledged to provide the families of fallen heroes with computers for the purpose of assisting their children with their school work.

That promise is now fulfiled through a historic collaboration between two “friends” of the Police.

Adding to the joy of the day, Zara also made donations of computers to the Officers’ Training Centre’s Registry and ‘G’ Division Headquarters.

Information Technology Consultant of the Zara Group, Nardeo Singh, said Zara saw the need to embrace those offices so that the good work of the Force continues and advances with the time.

Senior Vice President of Zara Realty, Jay Sobhraj, further expressed a common passion for service, synonymous with that of his colleagues and the Guyana Police Force; a passion demonstrated through their dedication to bringing awareness to information and communication technology in Guyana.

In addition, the children of those nine families will be inducted in the Zara “Back to School” summer programme which caters for children ages six to 12, and 13 to 16 years old and will cover Introduction to Computers and Microsoft Office.
