London Mining Makes Donations to Schools and Clinics
At a handing over ceremony held earlier this month at Our Lady of Guadalupe Secondary School in Lunsar, Port Loko, London Mining announced donations of 100 mattresses and 30 beds to schools and health centres in the town, and to victims of the recent fire disaster in Rolal Village in the Marampa Chiefdom.
“As part of our social investment policy we will continue to assist schools in our concession area”, London Mining’s Social Investment Supervisor, Ann-Marie Bassie, told students and teachers, adding that the items were donated to the school in order to augment the efforts of the school authority, and the government, in the provision of better furniture facilities for pupils at the boarding home.
Sister Elisa Padilla, Principal of Guadalupe Secondary School, thanked the company for the kind gesture and called on the students to use the donated items wisely.
London Mining also held donation ceremonies at the Mabesseneh Catholic Hospital and the Lunsar and Magbil health centres. In an address at the Mabesseneh Nursing Home, Desmond Doherty, London Mining’s Community Relations Manager, reiterated the company’s commitment to education and health and assured the student nurses that similar donations will be made in the future.
