Schools are scheduled to re-open on August 10th, and the Sunrise Rotary
Club of Belize has decided to come to the aid of 1,000 needy families
countrywide, with a back-to-school telethon.
Members say that they recognize the extreme financial hardship that
Belizean families are facing at this time, due to the economic crisis
brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic. So, to aid those parents who lost
their jobs during the National State of Emergency, the Rotary Club
wants to provide their children with school bags, school supplies, and
personal protective equipment.
The Club's Public relations director stopped by our office today to
tell us why they are hoping that the general public will show an
outpouring of donations to fund their initiative:
The telethon takes place on July 25th from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. and it will
be live on LOVE FM.
