On Saturday January 29th about 19 staff members and management got together to show their community spirit by painting the Senior Citizen Recreational Center in Hope Estate. The building was in much need of a paint job, however finding the funds to do so was difficult for the center.
Painting of the building was a big job as it took two days to complete. The bank provided all the necessary materials while a special "thank you" goes out to Kooyman for providing all the paints needed for the project. Kooyman has also proven to be very helpful in giving back to the community of St. Maarten. The bank also provided breakfast and lunch for the volunteers. The project started at 7:30am on Saturday and was completed by 2:30pm on Sunday. WIB is looking forward to having many more of such projects to help the needy in the community.
