The Joint Chambers have disbursed TT$ 250,000 to Sewa TT to support their flood relief efforts.
These funds will be utilised by Sewa TT to provide immediate relief to the many families impacted by the on-going floods across Trinidad.
Sewa TT with coordination by the ODPM, have been providing safe meals, water, and other relief items to impacted households over the past 48 hours.
However, it is clear that additional support will be required over coming days and weeks.
The funds were donated to the Joint Chambers over time by members to assist with relief efforts related to natural disasters.
This is another tangible example of the support that the private sector provides on issues of national concern.
President of Sewa TT, Revan Teelucksingh, said Sewa TT is happy to receive this support from the Joint Chambers and will provide the stability needed to continue doing the work necessary to assist people.
The Joint Chambers comprise the four major business associations in Trinidad & Tobago: AMCHAM T&T, Energy Chamber of Trinidad & Tobago, Trinidad & Tobago Chamber of Industry and Commerce and the Trinidad & Tobago Manufacturers Association.
