East Caribbean Financial Holding Company (ECFH), parent company of Bank of Saint Lucia and EC Global Insurance, continues to honour its social commitment to the people of Saint Lucia. Once again, ECFH is poised to pledge $25,000.00 to the National Community Foundation (NCF) when it hosts its 7th Annual National Telethon on Sunday, April 25th at Samaan's Park.
ECFH has been a loyal contributor to the NCF's now signature event aimed at raising funds to provide for the island's less privileged. In addition to its monetary donation, the company's staff members also volunteer their time by providing logistical support on the day of the telethon.
The Group's support of NCF began in 2002 when the latter entity was established and it donated $20,000.00 to the fledgling organisation.
Since NCF began hosting its annual telethon in 2003, ECFH has contributed over $130,000.00 to the event and has been a steady and consistent partner. In 2007, the Group increased its annual contribution from $20,000.00 to $25,000.00 and gave a five-year commitment to the NCF initiative. ECFH's consistent support of the NCF's Annual National Telethon is in keeping with its corporate social commitment to the socio-economic improvement of all Saint Lucians, and particularly to the less fortunate among us.
