In a remarkable demonstration of corporate compassion, telecommunications provider Flow Trinidad has orchestrated a profound holiday outreach initiative entirely funded and executed by its employees. Nearly 100 staff members recently transformed the Bridge of Hope Children’s Home in Sangre Chiquito into a winter wonderland of joy and celebration on December 13th.
The corporate volunteers arrived adorned in festive attire, complete with Santa hats and jingling bells, bringing an infectious atmosphere of Christmas magic to the residential facility. The Bridge of Hope serves as a critical sanctuary for vulnerable children, providing stability and nurturing during pivotal developmental stages. Flow’s intervention created a day of extraordinary experiences featuring interactive games, musical entertainment, and specially curated treats.
The emotional apex of the celebration emerged during the personalized gift-giving ceremony, where each child received individually tailored presents delivered by an employee portraying Santa Claus. This thoughtful gesture created profound connections between the corporate volunteers and the home’s residents.
Spearheaded by Acting Senior Manager Ellen Seed-Gray, this philanthropic endeavor has evolved into an cherished annual tradition that embodies Flow’s corporate mantra: ‘we do it the best, we do it with spirit.’ Seed-Gray emphasized that the initiative reflects the company’s core values and represents their commitment to sharing seasonal spirit with the broader community.
The Christmas outreach forms part of Flow’s comprehensive community engagement strategy that extends beyond seasonal activities. Liberty Business, the B2B division of Flow’s parent company Liberty Caribbean, recently demonstrated ongoing commitment through sponsorship of the Guardian Group’s Shine 5K race. Subsequent to the November 29th event, Flow directed proceeds to the Autism Support Network TT (Rahul’s Clubhouse) and facilitated furniture donations to educational institutions including a secondary school and homework center.
