One St. Vincent Group (OSV), a prominent advocate for community development, proudly announced a substantial donation of
five thousand dollars’ worth of cutting-edge agricultural equipment and supplies to the St. Vincent Grammar School. This philan-
thropic gesture is part of OSV’s commitment to supporting education and agriculture, facilitated through the Zero Hunger Trust
Fund (ZHTF).
Representatives from OSV and ZHTF pose with students of the St. Vincent Grammar School with some of the
items that were donated.
The St. Vincent Grammar School recently launched its Agricultural Science Program at the onset of the school year and recogniz-
ing the need for essential supplies to kickstart this innovative initiative, OSV stepped in with unwavering support. The generous
contribution includes a state-of-the-art drip line irrigation kit, a plastic mulch wheelbarrow, as well as an assortment of essential
tools such as rakes, shovels, pruning shears, and cutlasses.
Zion Cambridge, a Form 4 student at the school, conveyed heartfelt gratitude on behalf of the Agriculture Science students,
emphasizing the transformative impact of the tools: “We are extremely grateful for the donation of the hand tools as we no longer
need to use our hands to plant the crops.”
Kenley Ward, Sales Specialist in the Hardware department at OSV, expressed optimism about the contribution’s potential impact
on the agricultural sector in St. Vincent and the Grenadines: “We look forward to this donation developing the potential of the
agricultural sector here in St. Vincent and the Grenadines.”
Brendon Bique, Agriculture Science teacher at the St. Vincent Grammar School, extended his appreciation to OSV, highlighting the
significance of the Drip Line Irrigation System in streamlining the students’ morning routines: “The Drip Line Irrigation System will
greatly reduce the time for the students in the morning as they would no longer need a hose to water the crops.”
OSV is not merely content with a one-time donation; the organization is committed to actively participating in the program’s
ongoing success. Kimeisha Bailey, Marketing team leader at OSV, expressed enthusiasm about future engagements with the
students: “We look forward to checking in on the students to see the progress of their livestock and crop farms. Our team will be

returning on occasion to educate the students on technological developments in the field of agriculture through live demonstra-
tions of varying farming equipment available at OSV. Our aim is to increase awareness that they no longer need to rely solely on
traditional methods if they decide to pursue a career in farming.”
This collaboration between OSV, ZHTF and the St. Vincent Grammar School marks a significant stride towards nurturing the next
generation of agricultural leaders and fostering sustainable farming practices. OSV remains steadfast in its commitment to
empowering communities and driving positive change in agriculture through strategic initiatives.
