BUSINESSMAN and gold miner Paul Chow, alongside his wife Rayana, has launched his annual holiday goodwill campaign early this year by delivering breakfasts to vulnerable communities in Georgetown.
The initiative, carried out on Saturday, is just the beginning: over the coming days, the Chows plan to extend the effort across several neighbourhoods in Region Four with 2,100 breakfast meals.
The gesture is part of a long-standing tradition for the couple, who have used their resources to support underserved areas in this season of giving.
In previous years, Paul and Rayana have distributed school supplies, gifts, and meals to remote and coastal communities, a reflection of their belief in giving back.
BUILDING ON A LEGACY OF GENEROSITY
In December 2024, Paul Chow and his team visited Kaikan, a remote community in Region Seven, where they handed out over 500 gifts to children, as well as food supplies, fresh fruit, and ingredients for a traditional pepperpot breakfast.
Their generosity brought joy to many residents who rarely experience this level of philanthropic attention during the holiday season.
Over the past five years, the Chows made other impacts in Georgetown. They donated dozens of school bags filled with supplies, notebooks, pens, geometry sets, to school children along with sponsoring meals so students could begin their school year without worry.
“By investing in education, food security, and grassroots relationships, I am helping to build social capital in compliance with governments agenda for the development of society,” Chow said. “Success in the extractive industries can should come with a sense of responsibility.”
Over the next few days, Chow said the breakfast distribution will continue in various neighborhoods in Region Four, targeting families in need.
The Chows plan to use their network of local volunteers to ensure the aid is distributed efficiently and respectfully.
