Softball cricket has played an important role in our lives away from Guyana. It has permitted us to reconnect, make and nurture new relationships with our fellow Guyanese from our country of birth. As we plan to take part in one of many softball tournaments scheduled for 2014, we the players, management, sponsors and supporters of CricketZone Enforcers would like to introduce to you, the softball fraternity participating in the Florida Cup 2014, to a small charitable act that is generating immeasurable delight in the lives of orphans in Guyana.
The softball players, friends, supporters and close acquaintances residing in New York City have donated toys, books, sneakers as well as financial assistance to several orphanages ‘back home’. This generosity was a result of a simple suggestion made on Facebook in November, 2013. The beneficiaries of our kindness were:
1) Alpha Children’s Home, New Amsterdam, Berbice, GY
2) Canaan Orphanage, Port Mourant , Berbice, GY
3) Anjuman Orphanage, New Amterdam , GY
4) The Guyana Red Cross Convalescent Home, Georgetown, GY
We will hold a non-perishable food drive on Sunday, March 16th, 2014 during the final. We will accept can goods, dry foods, etc. Our goal is to fill a 300 pounds barrel to ship to Guyana on Monday, March 17th, 2014 on behalf of the Florida Cup 2014. We request your assistance to support children who are in need of basic necessities. Please Contact Sureain (201)993-0951 Navin Narine (917)828-3489 Email Address: CRICKETFAN23@AIM.COM.
