[Funds
raised for Meals on Wheels]

Savannah, Grand Cayman, February 14,
2019 – Hundreds of people wandered their way through the seven-acre
property of Pedro St. James on Saturday, 8th February for the fifth
annual Coco Fest. The coconut festival celebrates the ingenuity of
local cottage industry businesses while raising funds for a dual
purpose; to assist in the preservation of the Great House and to give
back to a local charity.

Pedro
St. James Operations Manager Deborah Bodden was delighted with the
turn out. “We saw a high level of support for our national
historical site and this year’s chosen charity Meals on Wheels. The
event raised a combined $2,673.00, with $1 from each paid admission,
$300 from drinks sales of 1780 Rum and
coconut water donated by Cayman Spirits Company and Grace Coconut
Water, raffle ticket sales and additional donations,” she said.

For
the second consecutive year, Fidelity Bank Cayman Ltd. signed on as
the main sponsor in a show of support to local companies and
artisans. “As one of the leading
indigenous banks in the Cayman Islands, we are happy to embrace the
Caymanian culture, and by extension, support donations to the Meals
on Wheels initiative. Fidelity sees this as a great opportunity to
contribute to the wider community which we serve,” said Fidelity
Bank Senior Business Analyst,
Linval Johnson.

Meals on Wheels
staff, board members and volunteers were out in full force at the
event and are grateful for the kind reception. “On all levels Coco
Fest was a blessing to Meals on Wheels, we were indeed able to enroll
delivery volunteers as well as Coin Drive volunteers,” expressed
Meals on Wheels General Manager Jennifer West.

“A heartfelt
thanks to Pedro [St. James], Fidelity Bank and the Tourism Attraction
Board for hosting such an amazing, cultural event and for supporting
our cause at the same time,” added Ms. West.

Other sponsors
include Bob 94.9 FM, Pepsi, Crown Events, Vigoro Nursery and The
Security Centre. “We want to also thank the RCIPS, Heather Bodden
and the CI Baptist Church for their assistance with additional
parking and support,” commented Mrs. Bodden.
