Trinidad and Tobago
- Caribbean Airlines Invaders Steel Orchestra
has joined with United Way Trinidad and Tobago
to assist with raising funds for Haiti. Invaders
will be donating TT $20.00 from each of its
J’Ouvert morning packages to United Way.
“We chose to partner with United Way Trinidad
and Tobago as they have the means to direct
funds to vital NGOs in Haiti.” said Liz Namsoo,
Chairman Fundraising Committee of Invaders.
The band’s 2010 presentation is called “Outta de
Ashes” and is dedicated to the belief that Haiti
will be delivered out of its tribulation. The
cost of the J’Ouvert morning package is TT
$150.00 and includes an “Outta de Ashes”
T-shirt, a breakfast snack and complimentary
drinks courtesy Hard Wine.
“Chipping” with Invaders j’ouvert morning is a tradition that
attracts hundreds of j’ouvert lovers and is one of the band’s main fundraising
contributors over the Carnival period. The band’s management is using this
opportunity to make a major contribution to the people of Haiti and they are
appealing to all Invaders supporters and friends to join them in this effort.
Other key sponsors of the Invaders’ “Outta de Ashes” fundraising drive for Haiti
are Protecto Garments Ltd., Design Source Ltd., Laughlin and de Gannes and
Correira’s Hard Wine.
Registration takes place at the Invaders panyard, 147 Tragarete Road, Woodbrook,
Trinidad from 8:00 p.m. daily.
