Partner Re Staff Assist At Seniors Home
23 employees from Partner Re engaged in a day of community service at Packwood Home, a non-profit organisation dedicated to providing quality care to our island’s seniors. Partner Re employees rolled up their sleeves and pitched in with projects that needed extra pairs of helping hands.
The team of volunteers enthusiastically tackled painting projects, gardening and cleaning of the beach area which was in need of much attention from the effects of Hurricane Nicole.
Volunteers also spent time reading, visiting and engaging in recreational activities with the senior residents which really lifted their spirits.
The Centre on Philanthropy said they are “grateful for the efforts put forth by Packwood Home staff and Partner Re employee volunteers in helping to make this Centre facilitated Community Day a success.
“A total of 126.5 hours of community service which translates to $3,490.14 of in-kind service was contributed by the employee volunteers of Partner Re.”
Karen Mitchell, Administrator at Packwood Home says, “The staff of Partner Re did an outstanding job in helping to restore the Home to its pristine condition after Hurricane Nicole.
“Partner Re is to be commended for allowing their employees to give their time for community work. It was also a fulfilling day for our seniors as they enjoyed watching the staff work, and particularly enjoyed listening to the reading.”
