PM Drew reminds nationals to apply for Children’s Assistance Fund

The Prime Minister of St Kitts and Nevis, Dr Terrance Drew, asked nationals across the nation to apply for the Children’s Assistance Fund. This appeal has been made by PM Drew through his official social media handle. It is to be noted that the Children’s Assistance Fund will support children who are in need of urgent medical assistance, abroad.

While taking it to his official social media handle, PM Drew said, “Greetings, Just a friendly reminder: If you know of any child who is in need of medical care abroad, as indicated by their doctor, please apply to the children’s assistance fund.”

It is to be further added that the Children’s Assistance Fund is an initiative undertaken by the government with the motive of providing financial help and support to children who are seeking medical care and attention.
