UMHS Students Donate Food to Holy Spirit Catholic Preschool

By Robertino Simpson

It is known to all that children are the future. Any investment in their health and well being is a gift that will produce many dividends. Holy Spirit Catholic Preschool is a Christian-based organization; they aim at making a difference in the lives of the children here in St. Kitts.

The University of Medicine and Health Sciences, one of the leading Caribbean medical schools, took the opportunity to visit the Holy Spirit Catholic Preschool recently. Through the donations from the student body and a donation from President Warren Ross, we were able to make food donations to the school. While making this donation, we got the honor of being serenaded by the kindergarten students who welcomed us with cheerful songs.

Again, I would like to thank all the students, faculty and staff who continue to support this endeavor and I urge everyone to continue in their support of the community.
