Handing over the donation to the Bo DICORVERC Coordinator, David Fortune, the Chief Executive Officer of Pavi Fort S/Leone, Alimou Barrie, intimated the gathering that he decided to join in the fight against COVID- 19 out of the passion to complement Government’s efforts in trying to curtail the spread of the virus.

 

He pointed out that he is supporting the Bo DICORVERC with 90 bags of rice, 40 gallons of hand sanitizer, 3,000 face masks and a 10 million Leones cheque to ease the burden on the Government in its strides to combat the virus in that part of the country.

 

Alimou Barrie also handed over 5 million Leones cash, and 30 bags of rice as social mobilization support for the chiefdoms within Bo district in order to enhance their interventions and awareness raising campaigns.

 

Dr. Ronald Marsh, the Bo District Medical Officer, spoke glowingly about the importance of the company's support to break the chain of transmission of the virus in the district.
