The Ministry of Tourism, Sports and Culture, through the Division of Physical Education and Sports, in collaboration with SVG Football Federation, has embarked on a drive to provide assistance to those in need, in Dominica, after the passage of Tropical Storm Erika.
A release from the Ministry says that financial donations from the public will be solicited at the World Cup qualifying match, Vincy Heat versus Aruba this Friday, September 4th at the Arnos Vale Sporting Complex.
A donation receptacle will be placed at each entrance in which patrons may drop their contributions. Also, at several points during the match, stewards will be going thru the stands to collect donations.
The Ministry is appealing to all who will be at the game, to make a donation as a show of solidarity and compassion, for our friends in Dominica, as we too know what the effects of natural disasters can be, with our recent experience on Christmas Eve, 2013.
