BASSETERRE St. Kitts, May 29th, 2012 -- On Friday, May 25th, 2012, National Caribbean Insurance (NCI) donated cleaning equipment to the Malcolm Hill and Cherry Gardens’ community development committee known as MALCHE to support and facilitate its upcoming community cleanup campaigns. The handing over ceremony was held on the play court in the center of the Cherry Garden Housing Development.
Mr. Orlando Sargeant, NCI Nevis Branch Manager, handed over the package consisting of a weed eater machine, two wheel barrows, rakes, shovels and brooms to Ms. Janelle Archibald, Chairperson of MALCHE. Ms. Archibald articulated that the sole purpose of MALCHE, which was formed on the January 31st, 2012 is to positively and effectively enhance the living conditions and environment in communities by closely working with individuals and community groups across the federation.
Partnering with the MALCHE committee fits within NCI’s plan to encourage a healthy environment. According to Mr. Sargeant, “It is a privilege and an honor to donate these items to the MALCHE community group, a group that has come together to enhance communities. I will like to take this opportunity to wish the group every success in their endeavor and I can assure MALCHE that NCI takes pride in assisting communities in any way possible.”
Ms. Archibald in expressing the group’s deep appreciation for the donation said that “MALCHE is proud to be affiliated with National Caribbean Insurance and the group is eternally grateful to the company for its generous assistance with the much needed equipment.”
The cleanup campaigns will allow residents to dispose of old, bulky items around their properties and in the neighborhoods in general. Community volunteers will donate hours to clean and beautify their communities.
NCI takes pride in making a meaningful contribution to the enhancement of its social partners and congratulates the MALCHE Community Group, the residents and all volunteers for taking action toward meaningful change in their communities.
National Caribbean Insurance recognizes the importance of working with its social partners and stakeholders to maintain sustainable communities and pledges that its involvement in social development will continue to be a priority.
