Tablet Distribution 2020

Empowering our Communities through Education

First Citizens recently seized the opportunity to demonstrate our commitment to youth and education by assisting primary school students with their transition to remote learning, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.  165 tablet devices equipped with a case, screen protector and a SIM card with three (3) month’s complimentary data access, were distributed in the Cedros, Biche, Toco, Debe and Montrose communities in Trinidad as well as in Roxborough and Mt Pleasant, Tobago. A total of eleven (11) schools, including government and various denominational schools, were beneficiaries of the devices.

First Citizens was truly heartened to embark upon this initiative, as recipients shared overwhelming sentiments of gratitude for the care that the Group demonstrated by remembering their sometimes forgotten, rural communities.

Here are some of the pictures from the presentations including some scenic and historic ones that were picked up along the way.
