MEMBERS OF THE disabled community will soon have a discount card to help with their purchases.
The Empowerment Card, which is expected to be rolled out in March next year, was officially launched by president of Barbados Council for the Disabled Senator Kerryann Ifill at the association’s Garrison, St Michael headquarters this morning.
Ifill encouraged all people offering a paid service to honour the new card. All disabled people over 18 and parents of disabled children under 18 are eligible to apply for the Empowerment Card.
Ever heard the saying “it’s better to give than to receive” well that also applies to time. By volunteering we support an organization or cause and make a great difference in our communities. It’s also a great way to meet new people and learn about the challenges they face daily. Consider giving more than just money, give your time !
