FCCA darovali 1,000 galonů barvy Ministerstvu Turismu

Na oficiálním ceremoniálu v pátek 9.července v Fort Street Tourism Village darovala asociace Florida-Caribbean Cruise 1000 galónů barvy Ministerstvu Turismu.

At a Cruise meeting held in Copan last month where the Minister of Tourism, Civil Aviation & Culture, Hon. Manuel Heredia, Jr., CEO, Mr. Mike Singh, Product Development Director, Mrs. Laura Esquivel-Frampton and the Registrar of Hotels, Mr. Lloyd Enriquez attended, open discussions were made with the President of the FCCA, Michele Paige, on how they can assist in the continued beautification of the Belize Cruise Tourism Product. As a result of these discussions, Ms. Paige forged her commitment by donating 1,000 gallons of base paint that the Ministry will use for beautification projects around the city. The FCCA works with Governments, ports and all private sector representatives to maximize cruise passenger, cruise line employee spending, along with working to enhance the destination experience and the amount of cruise passengers returning as long-stay visitors.

"The Ministry is grateful to Ms. Michele Paige and the FCCA for helping to enhance the beauty of Belize through the donation of the paint." "The Ministry will form a committee comprising of persons from the Belize City Council, the CYDP and Youth for the Future to decide how the paint will be deployed," CEO Singh stated.

It is important to note that the FCCA has also donated toys to the Children of Belize during the Christmas season. In its fourteen years of existence, the FCCA Foundation has impacted the lives of tens of thousands of Caribbean citizens providing almost $3 million in funding to causes and charities throughout the region. The foundation is just one way the cruise industry shows its support to its Caribbean partners.
