Rotary Sunset Donates to Jeunesse Soualiga

SINT MAARTEN (COLE BAY) – On Monday, June 10, the Rotary Club of St. Martin Sunset presented Ms. Idryssa Gumbs and Christoline Theodore of Jmix and Friends Corporation (JFC) Jeunesse Soualiga with a monetary donation towards the annual prom evening. Ms. Gumbs, who is the event coordinator, approached the club for the sponsorship of their annual event.

During the general meeting of June 10, Ms. Gumbs explained to the membership the tasks of JCF and the goals of the foundation. JFC is a foundation based on the French side of the island, which organizes events for teenagers, such as prom. This year’s prom will be held at the Port de Plaisance on July 26, 2019. The theme for this year’s prom is Wakanda Forever, whereby the students had the majority vote.

Ms. Gumbs explained the challenges faced by the organization, especially after the passing of hurricane Irma and lack of funding from sponsors, hence their approach to Rotary Sunset. As part of Youth Service month, it is within one of Rotary’s core values to enhance and promote the betterment of youth. JFC and its endeavors for youth and youth enhancements fall within the scope of Rotary’s focus, which fueled the decision to grant the sponsorship.

Treasurer Tyrone Yates along with Vice President Ruminni Rogers presented Ms. Gumbs and Ms. Theodore with the donation and wished them much success in their endeavors.
