Xhosa Barbados and Promotech Inc. made the presentation to the school this morning, and Xhosa’s initiative leader Niara Fraser explained: “Knowing that our work can allow for us to positively support young people and advocate for better teaching support for better learning results makes our work very gratifying.” “To think that this initiative has garnered the interest and support of corporate Barbados is heartwarming and shows that if we come together, each with just a little bit, we can make a big impact.”
