ACB Caribbean was pleased to serve as one of the sponsors of the Rotary Club of Antigua Sundown 10th Annual Pediatric Village, held on September 21, 2024, at the Antigua Girls High School.

This free health clinic was aimed at addressing the health and wellness needs of children between the ages of 3-11 years. As a proud supporter, ACB Caribbean is committed to contributing to initiatives that positively impact the lives of children and families in our community.

The Pediatric Village provided a range of critical health screenings, including weight, height, and BMI assessments, vision and dental checks, as well as general wellness examinations.

With the support of dedicated volunteer doctors, dentists, and eye specialists, the event helped ensure that many young children received essential health services free of charge.

In addition to the medical checks, Nutritionist Zoie Whyte and Chef Rotarian Maurine offered valuable demonstrations on healthy meal choices, including how to prepare smoothies and repurpose popular foods like ramen noodles to make them more nutritious.

ACB Caribbean actively engaged with children attending the event by hosting a Spin-the-Wheel game with attractive prizes to include shopping vouchers and toys.

“ACB Caribbean is deeply honoured to have contributed to such a meaningful event for the third consecutive year. Pediatric health is fundamental to the future of our community, and we are proud to be part of an initiative that brings free healthcare directly to children who need it,” said Marita Laurent – Senior Manager – Marketing & Corporate Communications, of ACB Caribbean. “We believe in supporting programs like the Pediatric Village that align with our commitment to invest in the well-being of the next generation.”

ACB Caribbean extends its appreciation to the Rotary Club of Antigua Sundown for their leadership in organizing this event and for giving us the opportunity to support this important cause. We remain committed to continuing our support for initiatives that enrich the lives of our children and contribute to the well-being of the community.
