Tobago, Trinidad and Tobago – The National Commission for Self Help Limited is reaffirming its commitment to community development in Tobago. At a recent cheque distribution ceremony, where 60 applicants received grants, Chief Executive Officer Kelvin Frith articulated the commission’s core mandate: to align with the division’s and company’s mission of impactful self-help initiatives.
Frith emphasized that the ceremony marked a “fresh development” in the commission’s activities, underscoring its dedication to the people of Tobago, regardless of their specific place of residence. According to the Self-Help Limited CEO, the company is deeply committed to “altering lives” through the creation of both small- and large-scale infrastructure projects, specifically designed to assist those in need.
Melissa Morris, the chairman’s representative, highlighted the crucial importance of this initiative. She noted that it prioritizes residents, especially those who have been adversely affected by natural disasters or other devastating circumstances. The distributed grants are specifically aimed at helping applicants undertake small repairs and providing essential assistance through emergency repair constructions, offering vital support to vulnerable households.
This ongoing program by the National Commission for Self Help Limited plays a key role in empowering communities and improving living conditions across Tobago.
