The Gambia Professional Photographers Society yesterday handed a ten thousand dalasis cheque as contributions for the road to Canada campaign.

Presenting the sum and the materials at the offices of the Ministry of Youth and Sports, the Secretary General of the society Dawda Bayo indicated that their donation is not to bribe their way to Canada but to contribute the quota to the development of society. He added that their association was accorded the opportunity to cover football matches by the Gambia Football Association.
The Secretary of State for Sports Sheikh Omar Faye received the donated items and in turn handed them over to the Secretary General of the GFA Jammeh Bojang. The SoS in his speech indicated his appreciation of the donated materials and urged others to emulate them. He added that the donation boxes should be monitored and protected to avoid what had been happening before.
