Rotary Club of Montserrat Provides Financial Support to Student at the Montserrat Community College
The Rotary Club of Montserrat has donated over a thousand dollars to the Montserrat Community College to cover the expenses of tuition and exam fees for one student for one academic year.
The donation of EC$1,830, which was made on Monday, is intended to enable a worthy student, who is currently enrolled at the college, to continue his/her education pursuing A-levels at the institution.
The student was selected by the Montserrat Community College and was internally awarded to support the financial needs of that student.
2021-22 President of the Rotary Club of Montserrat, Miss Siobhan Tuitt shares that the grouping understands the importance of professional development and is always interested in supporting youths on island in pursuing their academic dreams.
Tuitt says the Rotary Club values any way it can contribute to the personal and career growth of residents on island, and pledges the club’s continued support to education and any other developmental areas.
The club’s recent donation falls within one of Rotary International’s seven areas of focus: Basic Education & Literacy.
Rotary around the world has consistently dedicated resources to strengthen the capacity of communities to support basic education and literacy, reduce gender disparity in education, and increase adult literacy.
