RUBiS To Sponsor Archery Competition Day
RUBiS Energy will sponsor 4th Annual Archery Competition Day which is being hosted by WindReach.
Mr. Rose said, “RUBiS Energy Bermuda was both proud and pleased to be in the position to assist WindReach by sponsoring their 4th Annual Archery Competition Day, which saw over 50 individuals, both with and without special needs compete. At the Archery Competition we also donated a specialised sports wheelchair, valued at over $3,000.00. These specialist wheel chairs are of vital assistance because regular wheelchairs are unstable and unsafe for the many sports that are provided at WindReach.”
From L-R: Daniella Adams, Human Resources Administrator, RUBiS; Dianna Armstrong, Sales & Marketing Representative, RUBiS; Erica Fulton, Executive Director, WindReach Bermuda.
Ms. Erica Fulton, Executive Director of WindReach said, “We are extremely grateful to RUBiS for sponsoring our Annual Archery Competition and for donating the sports wheelchair. WindReach uses the chairs on Saturdays when we host our wheelchair basketball games as part of our Adaptive Sports Programme, andthe extra chair will enablemore able-bodied friends and family to participate in our basketball programme alongside those with special needs. This donation will increase the number of wheelchairs WindReach has to 9.”
Mr. Jermaine Simons, Sales Manager at RUBiS, finished by saying, “It is not common to find programmes that enable persons with disabilities and seniors to become active and enjoy sports activities. The WindReach Adaptive Sports Programme provides unique opportunities for these individuals to build their confidence and self-esteem. Tools, such as the sports wheelchair, are an integral part to removing limitations of one’s ability. At RUBiS, we are proud to support WindReach as they seek to enrich the quality of life for individuals with special needs.”
