Cost Right Freeport now
serve as collection sites for the non-profit organization as they seek to
provide assistance to islands in the southern Bahamas.
“As a corporate citizen, we are
committed to assisting in whatever way we can to bring aid to those impacted by
Hurricane Joaquin. Shortly after the storm, we reached out to the Grand Bahama
Red Cross and agreed to place collection bins at our Solomon’s branded outlets and
at our Cost Right location on the island,” said Renea Bastian, Vice President
of Marketing & Communications at AML Food Ltd, parent company of Solomon’s.
“Now our shoppers can donate with
ease in central locations. In addition to supplies like food, clothing and
basic necessities, we’re encouraging all citizens to donate of their time and
resources to assist our fellow Bahamians.”
