GFLF was proud to present the winners with their prizes at the pool party.This allowed the children to witness the live presentation.The organization\u2019s secretary, Mrs Asha Rickhi said \u201c the organisation took almost one month to present the prizes because we wanted to do the presentation at one of our charity\u00a0 events\u00a0 in the presence of\u00a0 some of the children for\u00a0 whom we worked so hard.\u201d<\/p>\n

The raffle was drawn on Sunday 14th<\/sup> April 2013 and was broadcasted live on Win TV.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are proud to know that Gift For Life Foundation keeps to its words and draws the raffle on the scheduled date. We are tired of supporting raffles that keep postponing the dates of drawing and then we never hear about the mysterious winners.\u201d commented Sarah Singh.<\/p>\n

A nation where lesser fortunate children are respected and are not denied of selfless love and affection with a sound educational background filled with\u00a0 high moral and values.\u00a0\u201c<\/p>\n

We agree that education is the way for children to move forward in life and to become the leaders of tomorrow. The public is invited to join the foundation and give GFLF the support it needs in making a difference all during the year in the lives of less fortunate children of Trinidad and Tobago.<\/p>\n

The Foundation expresses heartfelt gratitude to everyone in the public who assisted in purchasing or selling the\u00a0 raffle tickets for such a noble cause. Thank You again.<\/p>\n
