$200M for less fortunate in Berbice

Who is Marcus Bisram?? $200M is about $1,000. US can that fund all the stuff listed, funerals, surgeries,school fees,medical supplies etc., Still is something good in the right direction, When you have a government that ill provide for it's citizens, then it creates the "hand out " and "barrel economy"

Berbicians are in for hard times. Most of Govt revenue will be allocated for GT, Linden, Agricolla, Buxton and Sophia.

redo the math.

I stand corrected.

"THE Marcus Bria Bisram Foundation has committed to assist the less fortunate in Region Six every year by donating the sum of $200M."

And one wonders exactly where Mr. Bisram is going to get this money from on an annual basis?  How much of his funds will be going to administrative costs?  The intent is good, but what will the reality be.  I have been around these charities that pop up suddenly overnight to know better.  Much better. 

Is this the Vishnu Bisram family?? The pollster?

THE Marcus Bria Bisram Foundation 

MBBF’s Mission: To promote the cultural, artistic, and humanitarian welfare of the disadvantaged segments of our population in the United States, Guyana and the Caribbean.

MARCUS BRIAN BISRAM – CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND PRESIDENT

Marcus Brian Bisram, was born in Number 70 Village, Corentyne, Guyana. Having attended  Skeldon Line Path Secondary High school, Marcus migrated to the United States of America with dreams for a better life, and also of giving back something to all those who helped him, as well as, others.

Marcus was a student of Hunter College, CUNY where he studied Nursing. Upon graduation, he worked in that capacity for 4 years.  He pursued other career paths and was quick to rise to the occasion. As a  young cultural ambassador and investor, Marcus has been making a name for himself. A substantial portion of the net proceeds of his investments goes to charitable and humanitarian projects both here in the USA and in Guyana. He plans to expand the scope of the Marcus Brian Bisram Foundation (MBBF)’s mission to other parts of the Caribbean and Internationally.

Marcus attributes his success in life to his spiritualism, as well as, his humility. He loves his religion, Hinduism, dearly and continues to thank God for his abundant blessings.  He believes that the essence of religion is to perform charitable acts, to help those in distress and those that are falling.

Marcus’ kind heartedness makes him a good ambassador of charitable giving, but he would always insist on transparency and accountability.  He believes in the empowerment of the younger generation and his Foundation would be granting–to the less fortunate–conditional scholarships to pursue higher education. Marcus has also embraced skills development training for disadvantaged youth and is prepared to work in this area, as well.

Marcus is aware of the rate of poverty that exists in Guyana and will continue to provide medical assistance, shelter,food, clothing and sometimes funds and other items to several orphanages. These and other projects and activities are captured in the MBBF mission statement.

The Marcus Brian Bisram Foundation (MBBF) is the institution through which all future donations and projects will be made after careful evaluation.

Marcus Bisram would like more people to become actively involved in charitable and humanitarian work. He feels that there is nothing more nobler than this.
