Generosity rewarded
Joylene Griffiths Irving (right), director of public and corporate affairs at Scotiabank, receives a plaque, made from compressed bamboo, from Suzanne Stanley, the Jamaica Environment Trust’s programme director. The award was given to Scotiabank in recognition of their sponsorship of the Jamaica Environmental Action Awards 2011, held at the Knutsford Court Hotel in Kingston recently. Scotiabank received an Obra Award for contributing $500,000 and sponsoring the Most Environmentally Aware Community Award, which went to the Free Winnifred Beach Benevolent Society.
