[Updated] Clarien Bank Limited held their GiveBack Day yesterday [March 27], with their employees volunteering at Tomorrow’s Voices, located in the Teen Haven Building in Pembroke.

“Tomorrow’s Voices opened its doors to young people with autism or on the autism spectrum in October 2007. Offering a unique curriculum, the non-profit’s programmes help children strengthen their critical language skills, functional activity and socialisation, among other skills. Last October, Clarien Bank also donated $10,000 to help with the charity’s operating expenses.
Mr. Truran said: “Clarien is honoured to partner with Tomorrow’s Voices to revamp part of its space, making it more appropriate and enjoyable for their clients. We value the critical services this organisation provides to children on the autism spectrum in Bermuda and hope our small contribution will benefit these young people for many years to come.”
“All Clarien Bank employees are given an opportunity to participate in one GiveBack day a year. Each quarter, the bank chooses a noteworthy project on the Island, which aligns with its commitment to improving the lives of Bermudians and strengthening the local community.”
