The First Bahamas of Toastmasters Club 1600, was privileged to conduct a fifth successful year of the Neil Percentie Back to School Day.

A model citizen, Neil Percentie always assisted under-privileged school children in the area with much-needed school supplies. In this vein, the club continues to keep Percentie’s legacy alive by assisting the children of Union Village with school supplies along with free haircuts, entertainment, tips on how to excel in school, food and drinks. Neil Percentie was a known community activist, and had a bright future prior to his death on September 7, 2011.

This year, Club 1600 partnered with a number of sponsors including Lighthouse Ministries, Island Game, RM Bailey Class of 1992, Quinton Percentie (brother of Neil Percentie), Nassau’s Finest Barber Shop, Fidelity Bank, Fidelity Toastmasters Club 3953713, and Toastmasters Club 7178.

“We were grateful for the continued support and look forward to the event being very successful in the years to come” said President of Club 1600 TM Chervez Brown.
