The Democratic National Alliance (DNA) and its candidates continue to make inroads in their respective constituency in particular their candidate in the Bain and Grants Town Community, Brenda T. Harris who along with her team are doing an impressive job in that Constituency, that have her name buzzing thorough out the community.
A team of volunteers from the DNA Bain and Grants Town constituency office and the DNA Men’s Alliance recently spearheaded a minor home repairs project that left a number of residents with a smile on their face, expressing gratitude for the kind gesture.
Repairs were carried out to roof tops, windows, fences, doors and staircases of homes occupied mainly by the elderly and single parents.
The needed repairs were spotted during regular walk-a-bouts in the area by Ms. Harris and her team, who have been well received by residents in the Bain and Grants Town constituency.
As it relates to the home repair project Harris was appreciative of the volunteers assistance and noted that one of the strongest characteristics of historic Bain and Grants Town was the closeness of the community where people helped each other and cared for each other's property. She said, her team is only reintroducing and building on the culture of old that was once the way of life in the close knit community. The theme for the repairs project is "Doing Good to do well"and the slogan for her campaign is "Reclaim, Restore &, Resurrect!!
Harris who has been working in the area since 2014 noted that the repairs project along with other initiatives will continue as she continues to build stronger relationships with residents and leaders in Bain and Grants Town.
Harris also mentioned that a new and improved Bain and Grants Town Community Centre, where she is the Founder and Executive Director, will be opening in the very near future. The centre which is currently located on the corner of Market and Deveaux Streets, will soon have its new home on Blue Hill Road North. The centre provides job training, and job placement assistance, soft skills and employability skills training, entrepreneurial workshops, empowerment seminars, a computer resource center, a place for students to do research and a place for those who may need clothing and food items among the other services provided.
