THE NATIONAL CULTURAL Foundation’s (NCF) Drive-a-Thon, held last Saturday, was deemed a resounding success.

NCF staff and volunteers, as well as a number of entertainers, took to the streets across the island in an effort to collect goods for storm-ravaged Dominica.

While the final tally has not yet been made, corporate communications specialist Simone Codrington said they had collected barrels of goods from communities and people were generous all day.

People came out with diapers, money, dry foods and more. Some donations were even received at  NCF headquarters in West Terrace, St James, before the group moved off.
