A $30,000 one-off grant has been presented to the NGO Serving Women and Youth (SWAY).
This comes from the Ministry of the People, Social Development and Family Services and will directly fund the organizationβs Holistic Womenβs Wellness Day.
This is an initiative aimed at supporting approximately 60 vulnerable women from across Trinidad, by improving access to health information, emotional support, and community networks.
In delivering the grant, Minister Vandana Mohit emphasized the Ministryβs mandate to uplift vulnerable populations and strengthen community-based interventions, stating, βWhen we invest in women, we invest in families, communities, and the future of our nation. Partnerships with organisations like SWAY allow us to reach deeper into communities and provide meaningful, lasting support where it is needed most.β
