Each year in September the Dominica Council on Ageing (DCOA) celebrates the Month of the Elderly (MOTE). This year Sagicor joined them in their celebration by donating to their series of events designed to give seniors a red-carpet treatment.
The Dominica Council on Ageing (DCOA) is a non-governmental non-profit organization which serves as a coordinating body for national groups concerned with the welfare of Older Persons. During MOTE, the council hosts radio programmes, panel discussions and various other events. This year, Sagicor played its part in ensuring the elderly received the recognition they deserved by donating directly to the Appreciation dinner, an event hosted by the Council to honour 45 persons who have made outstanding contributions to the welfare of older persons. This is the first time this event would have been held in the Council’s 26-year history.
