Helping Our Schools Keep Pace

Scotiabankers in Antigua found inspiration for giving back within the island’s primary school system.

In five primary schools, we learned that the principals lacked the computer equipment they needed to keep pace with routine administration functions. Here was a need we could fulfill.

Through our contacts at Cable & Wireless Antigua, we were able to purchase five fully-loaded computers with multi-function printers at wholesale prices.

At a special ceremony held at each school, Scotiabank staff were thrilled to present the principals with their new computers and groups of students with backpacks filled with school supplies.

In follow up conversations with each of the schools, we’ve been told how much the computers are helping both administration staff and teachers perform their day-to-day duties more efficiently.
