BUSINESSMAN Rayneau Gajadhar, CEO of RG Group of Companies continues to practise corporate social responsibility.
Gajadhar believes in giving back to the community, especially when it serves a good purpose – in so doing makes the community a better place to live. Giving back is in the DNA of his company.
Every year during the months of July and August his company selects organizations or facilities to rehabilitate their infrastructure pro bono. This year he has chosen to assist the St Lucia Red Cross Society and the Bexon Infant School which assist victims of tragedy and foster the education of our nation’s children respectively. It’s this responsibility that this philanthropist/entrepreneur believes that he owes to his country.
Gajadhar expresses that this is nothing new to his company. “Almost every summer I try to take on a small project…….this year we are taking on the Red Cross building. We are refurbishing the Red Cross building and we are also doing the Bexon Infant School, together….”
This kind of community involvement by Gajadhar’s Company, as he mentioned earlier is nothing new. Schools like the Carmen Renee Memorial, Camille Henry, Fond Assau Primary, the Police Station in Castries and a sick bay at the Corinth Secondary School are all examples of community projects that have been done under this “giving back to the community” initiative.
Come next year Gajadhar will be looking forward to continue his good works. He is proud to be associated with such an annual initiative and welcomes the opportunity to make his mark in the development of Saint Lucia.
