Willemstad – The kids that live in the foster homes of Fundashon Guia Eduka i Forma and those youngsters who visit Sentro Pre Eskolar Tera Kora will have an extra special Christmas this year.
Both institutions recently received funds from CIBC FirstCaribbean which will go toward making this year’s Christmas celebrations for the children a reality.
Management and staff of the bank decided to forgo the usual annual Christmas party and donate a portion of the funds used for the event toward worthwhile causes instead. Fundashon Guia Eduka i Forma and Sentro Pre Eskolar Tera Kora were chosen as the recipients of this extra-special end of year gift.
“We are glad we can share and enrich this year’s Christmas celebration of these kids. The season we are in is all about sharing and reaffirming our bond as a community. CIBC FirstCaribbean therefore decided to use a part of what we would normally use to thank our employees, to enrich the celebration for these kids” Lysaira Ortela, Marketing Manager of CIBC FirstCaribbean said.
Fundashon Guia Eduka i Forma has around 100 children ranging from ages 6 to 18 years living in their foster homes at Huize St. Jozef, Huize Rose Pelletier and Kas Bruder Pius. Kresh Tera Kora provides for pre-school education to more than 80 students during the week. Sentro Pre Eskolar Tera Kora has for more than 30 years provide education to youngsters preparing to enter primary schools.
