First Baptist Wee Care recently made its annual Christmas donation to the Cayman Islands Crisis Centre, helping ensure support for Cayman’s women and children who are working toward a life free from domestic abuse.
Meila Johnson, case manager for the centre’s Children and Youth Programme, said, “This is a wonderful donation, particularly because we were able to get all of the children involved. It is important for children to understand personal boundaries and also to have empathy for the plight of others.”
A second donation of clothing and a financial contribution were also received from CNA HealthPro and the Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. Glen Ellyn Area Alumnae Chapter.
Crystal Brown of CNA HealthPro was visiting Grand Cayman for a conference and reached out to Ania Milanowska-Sedgley, executive director of the Crisis Centre.
“The unexpected gifts are sometimes the most appreciated. This was a lovely and welcomed surprise,” Ms Milanowska-Sedgley said.
The Cayman Islands Crisis Centre is the territory’s only women’s shelter and houses about 100 women.
