In the latest initiative, they donated hot meals and drinks to persons within Port of Spain in the first week of March, 2021. The staff of GraceKennedy Money Services assisted with the packaging and distribution of the meals.


“It’s the least we could do,” stated one staff member. ‘We have to be thankful for our blessings, and along with that gratitude, comes a responsibility to do what you can as an individual to help someone else. Every little bit counts.”


Grace Foods is the Caribbean’s leading food manufacturer and distributor providing authentics Caribbean food products since 1922.
