Unicomer Sponsorship & Donations 2024

Over the past year, Unicomer OECS Ltd.  demonstrated its longstanding commitment to uplifting communities across the OECS by  investing over Five Hundred Thousand Eastern Caribbean Dollars ($500,000) in impactful  initiatives.

These initiatives supported education, sports, culture, community development,  and environmental stewardship across the region. 

Throughout last year, Unicomer reinforced educational excellence by donating essential  appliances to schools across the OECS.

These contributions included state-of-the-art  televisions to enhance digital learning, practical support for washing school uniforms,  stoves, and fridges to improve school facilities and bolster nutritional programs.

In addition,  the company sponsored key initiatives that directly contributed to student growth and  academic achievement. 

A major highlight was the National Reading Competition, held in St. Lucia and  encompassing all eight education districts.

This competition offered primary school  students from across the region a platform to showcase their reading skills and build literacy  confidence.

Unicomer’ s support helped nurture a future generation of articulate,  knowledgeable, and enthusiastic readers. 

Recognizing the unifying power of sports, Unicomer made a significant investment in  football by providing much-needed support to several football teams and leagues.

This  included offering uniforms, equipment, refurbishment of training facilities, and financial  support.

These contributions have bolstered local football programs, enhancing athletic  opportunities for young talents while fostering teamwork, discipline, and community pride  throughout the region. 

Unicomer further supported the region’s vibrant cultural traditions by sponsoring national  festivals such as Carnival, Independence celebrations, and Jazz & Arts festivals.

These  sponsorships played a key role in sustaining creative industries, boosting tourism, and  celebrating the unique cultural heritage of the OECS. 

Over the past year, Unicomer made targeted donations designed to restore dignity, build  community resilience, and enhance lives for the underprivileged.

Notable contributions  include: 

Fundraising Support: Assistance for fundraising activities that empower local  organizations to generate additional resources and support their community  projects. 

Disaster Recovery Assistance: Focused aid for recovery efforts in St. Vincent and  Grenada, providing critical support in the aftermath of Hurricane Beryl.

Human Resources and Small Business Development: Support for programs  fostering human resources development and initiatives aimed at developing small 

businesses, empowering local entrepreneurs and enhancing workforce skills across  the region. 

Unicomer’ s commitment to environmental stewardship was also evident in several eco friendly initiatives, including: 

• Organizing regional clean-up campaigns 

• Supporting the OECS Recycle Debate, held across the OECS Community College,  where TMC Grenada emerged victorious 

• Promoting recycling awareness in collaboration with local communities and schools 

These efforts aligned with the region’s green agenda and contributed to a more sustainable  future. 

“Our investments in education and sports over the past year were far more than standard  sponsorships; they were a tangible promise to the OECS communities that we stand ready  to support and empower meaningful change,” said Kim A. Florent, OECS Senior Manager for  Marketing at Unicomer OECS.

“By enhancing school facilities with modern appliances and  practical support—such as washing school uniforms—championing young readers through  our National Reading Competition held in St. Lucia and bolstering athletic talent by providing  essential support to football teams and leagues, we have helped lay the groundwork for a  stronger, brighter future for everyone in the region.

Our focused support for fundraising  activities, targeted disaster recovery in St. Vincent and Grenada after Hurricane Beryl, and  our initiatives to foster human resources development and small business growth further  underscore our commitment to community development and resilience.”
