Nassau, Bahamas - Co-Chairperson of the National Committee of Volunteer Bahamas and Director of Youth in the Ministry of Youth, Sports and Culture Mr. Darron Turnquest announces, on January 30, the capture by police of one of the individuals who allegedly conned small community civic groups out of funds, by pretending to represent the programme.  Mr. Turnquest warned the general public that Volunteer Bahamas representatives do not solicit monies from civic groups and encouraged them to report any such attempted solicitations to the police.  "Volunteer Bahamas is a programme that does not require your finances, but simply your time," Mr. Turnquest said.
