Bank of Saint Lucia Stays with Youth & Environment
As the Saint Lucia National Trust launches the second year of its Youth Environment Forum, it can count on the continued support of one of its corporate partners, Bank of Saint Lucia. The bank has once again donated $5000.00 to the Trust as part of its three-year commitment to the Forum which began in 2009.
At the press launch held on July 15th at the Government Information Service, Bank of Saint Lucia's Assistant Manager for Corporate Communications, Ayodele Hippolyte, reiterated the bank's concern for both the youth and the environment. Therefore, this initiative by the Trust provided the perfect opportunity for Bank of Saint Lucia to be involved in both areas in a meaningful way. Ms Hippolyte also said that the bank was proud to be a partner in the hosting of such a worthwhile activity for the island's youth.
This year, the Youth Environment Forum is being hosted under the theme 'Many Species, One Planet, One Future'. Over one hundred students from primary and secondary schools across the island are expected to participate in the two-week exercise which comprises lectures, presentations and field trips. The aim of the Forum is to educate participants on environmental issues so that they can become advocates for the environment in their schools, homes and communities. Chairman of the Trust, Dr. Gregor Williams, who also addressed the launch, emphasized the need for young people to get involved in the critical issues that affect their society and the environment was clearly a key one.
