(CMR) The Cayman Islands Monetary Authority (“CIMA” or “the Authority”) had a successful second annual 5K & 10K Charity Walk/Run in May.
In a press statement, the Authority stated it was proud to note that this year’s proceeds surpassed the amount raised last year. This time around, the event raised a total of CI$18,150. The funds were donated to the literacy and numeracy programs within various local government primary schools.
Recognizing the importance of giving children a strong educational foundation, CIMA’s Managing Director Mrs. Cindy Scotland said,
“It’s not a secret that a good education has the power to change lives. Literacy and numeracy are important aspects of any child’s development. Therefore, CIMA takes great pride in helping to ensure that young people are provided with adequate resources to acquire these skills from early on. We owe much thanks to the local community and participants for their continued support.”
The Authority also extends special thanks to its event sponsors: Insurance Managers Association of Cayman (IMAC), Deloitte, DMS, Cayman National, Island Heritage Insurance, Cayman Islands Compliance Association (CICI) and Walkers. Other supporting groups were: Captain Marvin’s, World Gym, Winners Circle, Comfort Suites, Calypso Grill, Rubis, Cayman Turtle Center, Casanova, Kirk Freeport, Luca, along with many other companies that donated raffle prizes.
