Basic Needs Fund receives help from CDB

The Basic Needs Trust Fund doesn’t receive a lot of publicity, but it is a major source of funding for crucial infrastructure across the nation. Today, government and the Caribbean Development Bank signed an agreement for a three point two-five million U.S. dollar grant, which will continue the programme, which is aimed largely at rural communities. The Trust Fund projects typically involve the construction of schools, water systems and roads, as well as skills and leadership training.
