The Bahamas Financial Services Board (BFSB)has set up a donation page for the victims of Hurricane Dorian to provide vital funds for shelter and supplies.
The page encourages people to support relief efforts and says: “BFSB and The Association of International Banks and Trust Companies (AIBT) will contribute all funds raised to the support the provision of shelter as a priority item in the national relief effort.
As we have done in the past, we will segregate these funds and donate 100 per cent of all monies collected to specific projects designed to provide shelter initially and once immediate needs are met, we will move to support projects with a focus on youth and education.”
“These circumstances are unlike anything experienced in our recent history. It will take a tremendous amount of resources to create some normality in the affected islands. We also encourage you to please go out and volunteer. This is a long term multi-year endeavour of rebuilding Abaco and Grand Bahama.”
