#Providenciales, Turks and Caicos Islands –
October 6, 2020 — We are
proud to announce that this year’s proceeds from the 10th Annual Wine Cellar
Golf & Fishing Tournament were today presented to three youth-oriented
charitable organizations; the Edward Gartland Youth Centre, Turks and Caicos
Amateur Athletics Association and Food for Thought TCI.
The Edward Gartland Youth Centre is a non-profit organization
providing a centre for the youth of Providenciales with activities range from
tutoring, to sports and recreation, arts and craft and so much more!
The TCAAA affords kids the opportunity to participate in
international sporting events and Food For Thought TCI have various programs
geared towards feeding hungry school kids.
Donations were awarded as follows:
Turks and Caicos Amateur Athletics Association: $20,000
Edward Gartland Youth Centre: $20,000
Food For Thought TCI: $20,000 (65 laptops)
Laptops were donated this year to Food For Thought TCI in order to
assist government school children learning from home due to the Covid-19
pandemic. These state of the art laptops will make online learning
possible.
This brings the total donated by the WCGFT Committee to $341,000.
We look forward to giving even more next year and we would like to thank our
sponsors and organizers who were key in our efforts to give back to the Youth
of the TCI Community.
We look forward with great anticipation to next year’s event.
