Last mother\u2019s day, the EFPFA \u00a0considered the day to be a special day to reward three (3) mothers from the Gray\u2019s Green community.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

They were all \u00a0given due recognition from the Empire Former Players and Fans association (EFPFA), a non profiting organization.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

The recipients were Ms. Jean Weston, Mrs Gloria Gordon & Ms. Gretna (mama) Francis. Over the years, they have all had a very long & intimate relationship with Empire FC starting in the 1970\u2019s until present.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

The EFPFA is an organization whose primary objectives is to assist past players and fans of the Empire FC who has fallen on difficult times. The association comprises of former players of Empire who reside in Antigua & America. So far, they have assisted a few less fortunate with a cooking stove, a wheelchair and other charitable items.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

Although the association\u2019s mandate is to help fallen brothers & sisters within the community, from time to time, as they see it fit, they will also give \u00a0recognition to persons from the Gray\u2019s Green community who may not be facing challenging times but who have strongly contributed \u00a0to the survival of Empire Football Club over the years.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The presentation took place at the Gray\u2019s Green community Center at King George V grounds.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Each member of the association, both far & near took time out \u00a0to wish the recipients a shower of blessings for Mother\u2019s day and best wishes for their future endeavour.<\/p>\n
