Slough Dominican Association continues to contribute to Dominica in meaningful ways.

The group was formed in 2017, following the devastation caused by Hurricane Maria and determined to help in the recovery efforts. Since then, they have made numerous donations to the Infirmary, health centres and schools across the island. This time the organization has donated teaching and learning materials to the Salisbury Primary School.

Chair of the association, Rochdale Alexis says, “We wanted to help the people of Dominica in anyway that we could. We have held several fund raising events to raise funds in order for us to purchase much needed supplies for the primary schools, health centres and the Infirmary. We hope with all the supplies that we send to the various establishments that they are of benefit for the communities”.

Principal of the Salisbury Primary School, Henry Langlais, expressed thanks for the donation of mathematics games, rulers, crayons, pens, markers, poster boards among other items.He said, “These materials are very beneficial and will go a long way in improving teaching and learning at our school, especially since we lost almost every thing after Hurricane Maria. Thanks a lot and may God bless the members of this organization”.
