Soca Princess gives back

Samantha Combie also known as Soca Princess, in the Soca arena is giving back to her community by contributing on an annual basis to her old school, the Entrepot Secondary School.
Ms. Combie left St. Lucia eleven (11) years ago whilst attending the Entrepot Secondary School to take up residency in the United Kingdom. She never forgot the school which helped shape her and prepare her for life in the UK and always kept in touch with the vice principal and staff. She always vowed that one day she would contribute to the lives of some of the students at this same school.
For the past three years she has sponsored five children each year with hampers which include school supplies, toiletries and in general, items that would assist them.
On Wednesday July 7th, 2010 she presented the five students chosen for this year by the principal and staff spearheaded by Vice Principal, Mrs Juliana Cadet, hampers and a monetary sum totaling EC$2000.00.

 
 

This year she will be starting a Fund named “The Samantha Combie Fund” with an initial amount of $3,000 and is hoping to get a corporate sponsor to match the amount which will be in an account for the less fortunate attending the Entrepot Secondary School and this will be managed by the Principal, Vice Principal and the Bursar to assist other students who have not benefitted from her other annual contributions. The money will be used to assist the students in obtaining any items or fees pertaining to their educational needs.
She says that she hopes to continue giving back and will continue to increase her contributions by God’s Grace.
