Christmas gift for Crisis Centre
(CNS Local Life): The Cayman Islands Crisis Centre (CICC) recently received a belated $5,000 Christmas present from local company Marsh, raised during its annual holiday party where employees raffled various prizes that had been donated. “We truly enjoy raising funds for the Crisis Centre and giving back to the community,” said Beth Henry of Marsh.
“We are pleased to know that this gift will help improve the daily lives of those who have found themselves in circumstances needing the Crisis Centre’s assistance.”
CICC executive director Ania Milanowska commended Marsh on the donation. “It’s heartwarming to see the incredible staff at Marsh have once again remembered us during the holiday season. We are grateful for their generous contribution to the shelter.”
Established in 2003, the non-profit Crisis Centre provides refuge and support services for victims of domestic abuse. Milanowska highlighted the numerous programmes run by the charity, including its 24-hour crisis line, counselling, and the newly opened walk-in-centre, Estella’s Place.
“Our programmes continue to change the lives of countless women and children,” she said. “Without the fantastic support we receive from businesses like Marsh, our efforts to end domestic abuse would not be possible.”
