THE QUEEN’S COLLEGE Give Back Committee is stepping up its efforts to raise funds to get the school’s pavilion started.
The event to help raise the required $1.2 million for the project was launched at East Restaurant, Waves Hotel, Prospect, St James, yesterday.
The Barbados Gold Buyers Shine concert, described by committee chairman Vivian-Anne Gittens as its “most ambitious” event to date, will feature the award-winning Cover Drive and a cast of other local talent including Rupee, NexCyx, Philip 7 and Simon Pipe. It comes off at Ilaro Court on January 5 at 7 p.m. and is the main event in the Give Back campaign launched two years ago.
Organizers expect the concert to move the already accumulated $500 000 to the required $840 000 for construction to commence. (YB)
