Red Cross receives $100,000 from Visa

Story Picture
From rescue and relief after Hurricane Keith, the focus has now shifted to rehabilitation. Today, the Belize Red Cross received perhaps its largest private donation, a cool one hundred grand, thanks to Visa International. Christina Yock Kim presented the money to Delysia Goff, deputy director of the Red Cross. Goff says detailed assessment of the needs of some disaster stricken areas like the Belize River Valley, Orange Walk, San Pedro and Caye Caulker will be done in order to meet the continuing needs of farmers and families in the areas.
