The message of goodwill and charity was taken to Berbice on Saturday last, with scores of children being entertained at an Easter Concert at Courtland Road, Fyrish.
The children received kites and hampers from Mrs. Sita Nagamootoo, wife of the Prime Minister and First Vice President, Moses Nagamootoo, at her family residence.
In brief addresses to the gathering, both the Prime Minister and his wife emphasised that Easter is a time for goodwill and charity, and urged that all Guyanese should share not only love and cooperation, but small tokens that could comfort Guyana’s children.
This year’s concert was graced by Chinese Ambassador Cui Jianchun and his wife Huili, who were visiting Berbice for the first time; and Indian High Commissioner H.E. V. Mahalingam and his wife. They also joined in sharing kites to the many children. Also present were the Regional Executive Officer, Mrs. Kim Stephens, and a Director of the Berbice university campus.
Mr. Tony Joseph, an Iowa-based, Guyana-born Director of the family charity, reminded that small mercies for children could go a far way in sharing goodwill and happiness, which his family has been doing in Guyana since 2008.
The previous Saturday a similar event was organized by the Joseph/Nagamootoo Charity at Anna Regina, Essequibo Coast, at which the Prime Minister was chief guest. Whilst there, he met with regional leaders and urged for broad cooperation to push development in Essequibo.
Please share this to every Guyanese including your house cats.
