Children from Gambier Primary School who have been provided with new backpacks by the Sandals Foundation.
THE children at Gambier Primary School are in for a treat during the course of the school year.
Team members of Sandals Royal Bahamian and the Sandals Foundation, the charitable arm of Sandals Resorts International, brought 50 brand new backpacks filled with school supplies to the school for the inception of the Birthday Bag programme.
If a child has his or her birthday during the school year, they would receive one of the bags as a birthday gift.
Sheniqua Curry, principal of the school, said: “We love how Sandals always keeps the children of this school in their thoughts. It’s such a nice thought to know that most of these kids will be receiving something on their birthday. Almost every single bag is different and they all have a mixture of useful items so no one will feel left out.”
The donation of the backpacks was made possible by the Sandals Foundation’s Pack for a Purpose programme where all guests, inclusive of the general public, are encouraged to donate a backpack filled with school supplies to be gifted to schools and other youth institutions in New Providence and around The Bahamas.
