We could not have achieved these milestones without your unswerving support. The Board of Directors also wishes to place on record appreciation for the immense contribution, devotion and commitment of retiring directors Sis. Lydia Lewis, Sis. Jameela Hollingsworth and Bro. Courtney Gibson and to also place on record our appreciation to interim Directors Sis. Nicola Callender and Bro.

The selfless service provided by both the interim and retiring Directors is sincerely appreciated.
