George Pelgrim becomes Top Donor to the Prison Officers Week Annual Fundraiser

    George Pelgrim tops donations in St. Maarten.

    SINT MAARTEN (PHILIPSBURG) -The Pointe Blanche prison's mission is to manage offenders in a safe, secure and humane environment and provide assistance and opportunities for rehabilitation and reintegration in society.


    Contribute to a safe, efficient and humane detention climate for both inmates and personnel. Personnel who, in their own rights, deserve mental health support and breaks from an ever growing stressful work environment.


    With this in mind, the Prison Workers Club hosted an annual fundraising to make an Aruba trip possible and Mr. George Pelgrim, Sint Maarten based CEO and entrepreneur, supported with a major contribution to become their top annual donor.


    "It's only normal to make sure our civil servants, police force and prison workers get the support they need in good and harder times as well" said a proud George Pelgrim.


    The Prison Worker Activities Club presented to Mr. Pelgrim a certificate of appreciation for his continued contribution.

    Mr. George Pelgrim closed with, "To give back is a privilege that I do not take lightly, I am proud of our brothers and sisters all over this small island community we call home, their work and dedication through the challenges involved is what island pride is all about."
