Saying he chooses to be one person less to complain, that’s exactly what businessman and Philanthropist Arlington “Gumption” Creque did when he handed over a $10,000 Cheque and Air Conditioning Unit to the Jost Van Dyke Primary School, on behalf of his charitable project, “I Support Positive Youths”.
The Jost Van Dyke Primary School was in the news recently, with flooded complaints about the condition of the school when it was due to re-open for the new term in September.
Parents and teachers had staged a protest because of the deplorable conditions there.
Following that, Creque advertised that if anyone or company booked with him for a tour for October 19, 2021, he would donate the full amount to the school.
He said he received a booking that amounted to $5,000 and, loving the idea, the amount was matched by a US-based company. On Tuesday October 19th, Creque surprised the school with the donation.
