Former West Indies cricket captain Daren Sammy is assisting underprivileged children in his native St. Lucia and would also like to do so in other Caribbean territories. Following the official launch of the Darren Sammy Foundation (DSF) in Castries last August, the international cricketer was recently presented with corporate support for his charitable project by the Barbados-based Sagicor General Insurance. Through executives in St. Lucia, the regional insurance company last week donated funds to the DSF and Sammy was on hand to personally express his appreciation to the company. So far 10 under-privileged children, between the ages of 9 to 13 from across St. Lucia , have been awarded scholarships under the DSF project which will assist them in fulfilling their educational and sporting dreams.
