Sail Away Soca To Host Fundraising Event
On Thursday, May 26, Sail Away Soca – a team that consists of Melissa Trott, Sheena Chomoledgy and Hafid James – will be hosting its second fundraising event.
A spokesperson said, “This year they decided to have a fundraiser to get the frontline nurses a thank you gift for their hard work and commitment during this Covid pandemic. Even though we are hopefully coming out of this pandemic, we felt it was important to show our gratitude for everything they’ve done, risked and sacrificed to help keep us safe.
“I remember seeing those nurses on their feet for hours. They were tired but still offered the best service possible, so we thought it would be appreciated if we got them some massages after a few years of stress.”
“Sail Away’s fundraising event will consist of a party on May 26 at White Horse Pub & Restaurant, featuring Bermuda’s best DJs in Rusty G, DJ Mystro and Dat Bie Dez. Along with the party there will also be an online $10 raffle offering prizes from a variety of local businesses.”
Nurse Crisa, testing site lead, said, “We are very grateful to have this kind event for us. On behalf of the Testing team, we thank you for appreciating what we do to make Bermuda safe. I would also like to thank all the healthcare workers who selflessly give themselves in this time of Pandemic. Words can’t explain how we appreciate all of you who are behind this event. Thank you so much.”
“For more information about the event email sailawaysoca@gmail.com or follow them on instagram @sailawaysoca and to purchase raffles go here.
The spokesperson said, “Sail Away Soca will also be assisting The Bermuda Blood Donor Centre in a local blood drive. If you give a donation you will get free entry and a drink to our next fete on Sunday April 24th. The hospital is currently low in blood supply and just one pint of blood can save up to three lives. Sail Away has always been a place for positivity and giving back so we jump at the opportunity to help.
“Sail Away Soca would like to thank the sponsors that helped make this possible: White Horse Pub, Hamilton Princess, The Retreat, Siam Spa, RIA’s Creation, Beast Gym and Johnnie Walker. Our potential success wouldn’t be possible without their generous sponsorship.”
