The St. Andrew’s Development Organisation recognised various parishioners and organisations for their invaluable contributions to St. Andrew parish and Grenada as a part of the Emancipation Celebration 2020.

The awards have been tailored to recognize the Essential Workers, as we all have been affected by the COVID-19 Pandemic in one way or another.

“Our essential workers are our real heroes, they are the ones responsible for the progress we have made during this pandemic, we owe them a lot for what they have done,” said  SADO’s President Royan Charles.

The 2020 Emancipation Celebrations was held virtually under the theme “Reclaiming Our Rights Promoting a Culture of Excellence.”

The following individuals were recognized.

• Farmers Gerald La Barry and Patrick Francis- For their contribution to Food and Nutrition Security  

• The Grenada Union of Teachers St. Andrew – For their contribution to Education

• The Eastern Division of the Royal Grenada Police Force- For their efforts in Keeping Peace

• The St. Andrew Medical District- For their efforts to providing adequate Health Care

SADO salutes all our Essential Workers, who continue going above and beyond during these unprecedented times. We say thank you.
