As a Foundation committed to creating and building
life-long legacies among every age group, the “Archives” link allow us

wellness releases from time-to-time to reach our goals and objectives.
We welcome participants with valuable facts and inputs; please send said
information for consideration to be posted. All such posting becomes the

“Disclaimer”.
Archives and Historical Landmarks for any
community or nation, it’s truly a noble goal to pursue when citizens
preserves, documents and help relay the stories of successes or failures
experienced by their forefathers and foremothers. It is imperative for
volunteers and funders to join hands together and do all in their power
to preserve the little that’s left and possible rebuild many landmarks
or archives in ruining condition throughout Grenada. We get insight of
the resilient ways they handled and dealt with life challenges leaving
us with legacies worthy to be sustained for generations to come. The
more we understand the past, our children and grandchildren will be
prepared when dealing with the challenges of today and tomorrow. Indeed
each generation has the obligations to secure these treasures in
whatever form. So too our generation would want to leave our mark that’s
also worthy to be preserved. More to come…
Agriculture, Agro Industry and Horticulture provides a clear
indication as to the level of value and commitment each community and
family possesses by our actions. The earth and its bounties is one key
source for sustaining life by way of food and other essential products
we depend on daily, so the more we know and utilize it wisely, the
healthier and safer our land, water and air assets will be. The experts
in agribusiness with decades of experiences who are still alive are
obligated to pass on the wealth of knowledge to our younger farmers and
citizens. We must develop an agro-library with a wide range of
contributions from farmers in every community. More to come…
Associations, Foundations and Societies have all played giant
roles in the life development of families, communities and our nation.
Much credit must be given for the visionary men and women in the pass
who acted and build these institutions. They came together, organized,
established and constructed these institutions leaving us historic and
successful legacies, from which we continue to receive immense benefits
today. More to come…
Credit Unions, Financial Institutions and Insurance Companies for
most part have been stable financial entities serving each citizen
direct or indirect ways. They have collectively provided a spring board
for families, businesses, organizations and government to purchase
lands, properties, goods and services that created financial viability
for all parties involved. Over the years more citizens have become
shareholders in these institutions to create an even stronger financial
industry in Grenada. More to come…
Courts, Legal System, Rule of Law, Rights of Citizens and Security
provides the legal ordinances and moral guidelines to govern, enforce
and protect every citizen under Grenada’s constitution. As citizens we
must find better way to understand and appreciate our laws, courts,
rights and security and help create a better nation. More to come…
Creativity, Performance and Path to Success must be goals every
citizen should strive to accomplish. Of course there will be many
barriers along the way, but as we mature and develop valuable life
skills and life legacies the rewards becomes sweet. When we do, we
simple become a blessing to our family, community and our nation.
Creativity, performance and success are keys to any venture, this begins
from birth and as long as there is life we can find purpose, passion and
power to reach the stars. More to come…
Diaspora Impact to Grenada and Abroad is probably a well kept
secret that needs to be told and delivered. Some believe the Grenadian
diaspora is at least twice the size of Grenada’s current population.
It’s very clear, the cream of the crop have migrated and settled around
the world in the last century. In most cases the diaspora community have
become almost disconnected to the homeland and very little have been
done to reverse this trend. The diaspora have much to offer to Grenada,
that impact can cause significant positive results in Granada and for
the diaspora communities abroad. Imagine 5 percent of Grenadians abroad
were to return and or make investments in the development of Grenada’s
economy, social services, education, health to mention a few. Five
percent will represent about 10,000 Grenadians and over 2 billion USD of
investments in homes constructions and other business ventures. The
diaspora impact will certainly be seen, it will change the percentage of
Grenadian ownership, management and direction in Grenada. More to come…
Economy and Resource Management is a fundamental responsibility
to be shared by leaders in government, opposition party, business,
non-profit sectors, religious and educational institutions, retirees and
youth. Their input, analysis, plans and actions should have a sole
purpose to safeguard the socio-economic wellbeing which is the
management of Grenada’s natural resources, environmental, educational,
health, communication, transportation, food, water, security and so
forth. It includes our imports verses exports products and services. We
have to focus on designing and implementing ways to convert our raw
materials into by-products to gain the highest revenue flow and
increases of employment in Grenada. More to come…
Educational Institutions across Grenada needs critical support
from educators, parents, leaders, mentors, retirees and diaspora groups
to ensure better preparation for especially, our children and youth
facing global challenges. Our focus must include tools, resources and
guidance to quickly adapt in an ever changing marketplace. We must find
ways throughout our life-learning journey to connect the elderly,
adults, youth and our children to understand the history and the
contributions made by our forefathers and to capture and preserve the
positive legacies for generations to come. We ought to learn that our
living is much more then getting a degree or a job, yes that’s
important, but also include using our time, talent and money to benefit
our relatives, community and nation. We must invest smarter. More to
come…
Expo ’69 and Rainbow City events like these, yet to be properly
documented can serve as a vital reference of the Grenadians spirit,
creativity, productivity, joy and hope of the human race. This can
transient as building blocks for the Caribbean region and across the
globe. Expo ’69 was the brain child of the Late Sir Eric Gairy that
served as a national, regional and global icon. It helped evoke untapped
local skills, creativity and career modeling. With limited resources and
team work the nation experience an outstanding display of pride and
honor. Expo ’69 was the only of its kind and magnitude in the Caribbean
thus far. Rainbow City was established in Grenville, Saint Andrews as
one of the event to replace the lost of Pearls Airport and the overall
business it generated. This attraction was aim at sustaining a tourist
presence to help boost the economy in Saint Andrews. More to come…
Government Ministries, Officers and civil Servant Roles is vital
to the stewardship and management of all state goods and services with
the sole intent of providing services to citizens in a fair and ethical
manner that ensures the ownership and protection of private and public
resources. By so doing government leaders, managers, workers, and
vendors help create a stable socio-economic environment for the
prosperity and wellbeing of each citizen. Citizens expect government to
act on their behalf in providing services under normal and emergency
situations. Government services and staff are paid through revenues
collected from taxes, fees, fines and investments. More to come…
Grenada’s Independence and Thereafter is a highlight in Grenada’s
history needed to be understood by more Grenadians. In the ‘60’s and
‘70’s many countries under British rule were demanding Independence and
Premier Eric Gairy at the time believed it was the right time for
Grenada to obtain its freedom from the British. Premier Gairy was able
to negotiate conditions with the British government under which Grenada
will be granted Independence. He was able to achieve those conditions
via a national campaign and landside victory at the polls. He was faced
with harsh opposition such as strikes, shut down of schools and
businesses over several months, but finally Grenada became an
Independent nation on February 7, 1974 with Gairy as our first Prime
Minister. Independent nation is more than having the status of the name,
it’s about our citizens creating, managing and receiving the maximum
benefits by inter-dependence relationships across socio-economic
landscape. More to come…
Healthcare delivery System, Management, Economics and Outcomes
requires much reform to our healthcare delivery facilities and services
along with state-of-the-art technology and expert management. Analysis
and strategy to address the major chronic diseases, improvement in
health education and preventive medicine practices. Design a Health and
wellness national campaign to reach every age group by utilizing various
mediums such as the classrooms, churches, businesses, media and so
forth. The health of each citizen will determine the cost that directly
affects the nation’s values in terms of creativity, productivity and
financial gains. Therefore, our health has a direct impact on our
pockets and our economy. More to come…
Manufacturing, Wholesalers and Businesses is an area worthy of
major overhaul starting with research, production, product design,
manufacturing, marketing and sales especially with our premium spices.
We can certainly use our high quality spices to create an “icon brand”
to build our tourism sector. Our by-products can be sold as gourmet
products earning us significant revenues when compared to our raw
materials. We will need to explore joint venture and or business mentors
relationship especially with Grenadians abroad. They can bring a first
world experience, funding and commitment to various business development
ventures in Grenada. More to come…
Non-Profit and Religious Organizations provides safety nets and
empowerment roles to families, businesses and institutions from time to
time. These organizations must become the moral, ethical and support
voice in Grenada’s culture that’s encourages hope, faith, love and
service to those in need. More to come…
Public Services are critical to life activities in every
community. Therefore, every citizen should be trained, encouraged and
required to provide benevolent assistance in areas such as education,
healthcare, social work and so forth. Creation of a mentorship public
service club can help sustain community teams, leadership and
organizational growth. More to come…
Recognizing Key Contributors is a service lacking and much
underutilized to enrich our citizens by learning and practicing ways we
can all make contributions, be it small or big. In many counties
citizens are recognized for reasons such as their life work
contributions or various tangible donation and or support to a cause,
but the most important lesson and value for them is inspiring others to
learn from their (actions of passion and purpose) legacies and become
leaders and mentors as they find causes to excel in. They make and leave
this world a better place. More to come…
Social Service is a pillar when embraced and supported will reach
citizens in need and citizens who give. This work is a noble undertaking
as it explore opportunities that become miracles in the lives of the
givers and receivers, these life changes usually put the needy and under
privileged on a part to pursue their passion and commitment to reach
great highs. Campaigns of training citizens as volunteers who have a
passion to help fellow Grenadians should be ongoing and be seen as an
investment in our socio-economic market place. More to come…
Statutory Boards have been part of our socio-economic development
for many decades. But, they are at a cross-road and lagging far behind,
their very survival is in question. Therefore, we need innovative
experts and stakeholders to meet at these cross-roads and bring their
shared resources to create new goals and directions. In a quickly
changing global market place with advances in technologies, operations,
marketing and management we must create a master plan to adopt in terms
of months and not years. The truth is that we have had many challenges
and successes over the years. We need to document, archive and quickly
pass on our findings to our younger citizen as a foundation they can
build upon. More to come…
