Roseau, Dominica, November 2026 — The Dominica State College Alumni Association (DSAA) will host its 2026 Book and Stationery Drive Handover Ceremony on Thursday, November 12, 2026, from 10:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. at the University of the West Indies (UWI) Campus in Roseau.
The ceremony will mark the culmination of DSAA’s 2026 Book and Stationery Drive, a community initiative launched as part of the 5th Edition of White Sunset with a Hint of Creole, DSAA’s signature event. The initiative aims to support primary education by providing students with essential learning resources while encouraging alumni and community members to invest in the educational development of Dominica’s children.
Three primary schools have been selected to receive donations of books and stationery:
- Wills Strathmore Stevens Primary School, Marigot
- Petite Savanne Primary School
- Castle Bruce Primary School
The initiative has been made possible through the generosity of alumni, individuals, businesses, and community supporters who contributed books, stationery, and other educational supplies.
Through this initiative, DSAA seeks to promote literacy, encourage academic achievement, and help create a supportive learning environment for primary school students across Dominica.
The handover ceremony will bring together representatives of the three recipient schools, DSAA leadership, and invited guests for the official presentation of the donated educational supplies.
The Association extends its appreciation to everyone who contributed to the drive, recognizing that collective acts of generosity can make a meaningful difference in the lives of young learners.
Guided by the campaign slogan “Every book. Every pen. Every child.”, the Book and Stationery Drive reflects DSAA’s commitment to giving back to the communities that have helped shape generations of Dominican students.
