Fortunate

She noted, that many programmes of the HLSCC Culinary Arts Centre are still affected due to the loss of specialty equipment at the institution following the September 2017 hurricanes.

"The net proceeds will go towards the Culinary Arts Centre so we can get our kitchen up and running and our programmes going.”
