FREEPORT, Grand Bahama Island – A donation of four floor fans and a kitchen blender to the Burrows Home for the Aged by FNM candidate for Pineridge Frederick McAlpine will provide much needed assistance to the 13 elderly and disabled men and women at the care facility.

Mr. McAlpine, accompanied by his wife Tracey and Party members, made the presentation to the facility on Wednesday morning and spent time praying with and for those in the Home’s care. The Burrows Home, located a short distance from the Rand Memorial Hospital, is in the Pineridge Constituency.

The floor fans will assist in essential cooling for the elderly and bed-ridden at the Home, and the blender will aid in the preparation of meals for those who are unable to chew solid food. Mr. McAlpine pledged to provide further assistance to the elderly and disabled at Burrows Home.
