GraceKennedy Foundation provides for school

GraceKennedy Foundation’s Executive Director Caroline Mahfood and Chief Operating Officer of Pan-Jam Paul Hanworth officially hand over the renovated bathrooms to the students at Boys’ Town Infant and Primary School on Thursday, April 28.

GraceKennedy Foundation awarded a grant of $300,000 to assist with the renovation of the boys' and girls' bathrooms. The school is in need of all the help it can get.

At the moment, there are no piping systems that facilitate water being pumped into the school. Currently, water is trucked in once a week, and many times the school has to close because of limited water supply. Before the renovation, toilets had no seats and many of them were broken.
