The Guardian Neediest Cases Fund (GNCF) recently hosted its annual Movie Premiere at Movietowne, Mucurapo last Tuesday. The event, which was supported by several corporate citizens, philantrophic patrons and moviegoers is one of the major fundraising activities of the Fund. Last year’s Movie Premiere raised over $39,000.
For over seventy two (72) years the Fund expanded its reach to assist the Needy throughout Trinidad & Tobago. One of the most important activities of the Fund is to help the Non Governmental Organizations (NGOs) carry out their work of helping the less fortunate. Financial assistance may be accessed by needy persons through the authorised NGOs or by applying directly to the Guardian Neediest Cases Fund Office at The Trinidad Publishing Company Limited.
