Trinidad & Tobago, W.I. - The Scotiabank Foundation recently partnered with the Rotary Club of Central Port of Spain to support the Beetham Vibrations Steel Orchestra (BVSO), which was conceptualised by that Rotary Club to create a sustainable model for hope, unity, and advancement of the youth in Beetham Gardens.

This new creative endeavour is intended to instil a sense of discipline, self-esteem and belonging in the youths of the community.

....The bank’s donation of $100,000 will enable the purchase of instruments, as well as the tutoring of the players.

....The members are currently practising under the stewardship of Khari Codrington of the Codrington Family Institute and his father Cary.
