The Caribbean Confederation of Credit Unions (CCCU) has signed grant agreements with the Dominica Cooperative Societies League to the tune of EC$216,000 to assist its affiliates in the reconstruction process.
 
 From this initial disbursement the National Cooperative Credit Union will benefit from a grant of EC$186,000 to assist rehabilitation works for its Veille Case, Paix Bouche, LaPlaine and Grand Fond branches, while the St Mary's Cooperative Credit Union will be assisted with a grant of EC$30,000
 
The General Manager of the CCCU says that the Confederation had also made a major contribution to the overall rebuilding efforts in Dominica through the donation of 10 tents, and 400 chairs valued at US$40,000 to the government to get the school system operational.
 
Efforts were also ongoing to mobilize resources to assist the league itself.
 
The drive for assistance will continue he says, and we urge our associates to continue to make donations as we strive to ensure that Dominica is well positioned to return to normal.
