In an attempt to foster increased presence of women in politics, and better their lives, the People’s National Party (PNP) is continuing the initiative that caters to women supporters in the party.
The President of the People’s National Party Women’s Movement, Patricia Duncan-Sutherland, announced several donations at the association’s annual fund-raising dinner. Speaking at the association’s annual fund-raising dinner at the AC Marriott Hotel on Saturday, she said the programs will be named after the movement’s four past presidents.
The “Elevate Her Wealth” Program will award the recipient with two hundred and fifty thousand dollars, and is named in honor of Ambassador Marjorie Taylor. With similar value, the “Elevate Her Dignity” award is named in honor of the most recent past President, Jennifer Edwards, targeted at elevating the housing situation for the recipient. The “Elevate Her Power” Award is in honor of former Prime Minister Portia Simpson Miller.
Meanwhile, two hundred and twenty-eight (228) children will benefit from the ‘Elevate Her Community Award’ in honor of Beverly Manley Duncan. More details in the report:
