Nicolette du Plessis, Chief Executive
Officer of the Field Band Foundation has released the following communiqué:
The Field Band Foundation is completely and
proudly aligned to the principles and intentions of the President’s call for a
lock-down from tonight until April 16.
The primary focus of our preparations has
been the securing of our assets: our young community project leaders who are
the agents of change in their communities.
Tight lines of communication are in place
to provide consistent and caring support to these teams who have also been
provided with information, sanitizing equipment and other basic supplies. They
are the face and soul of the Field Band Foundation in 7 out of 9 provinces and
we hold them close.
Our core head office staff include our
re-patriated Norwegian exchange participants who are still actively
contributing to getting our organizational To Do list completed. Virtual
working has translated extremely well into actual results. We have had encouraging
communication from our national and international partners and firm backing
from our committed and involved Board members.
Belonging to the band means knowing we all
have a part to play. We intend to play the game and play it loud and clear
along with our fellow citizens. Starting with joining in on a virtual platform
to sing the national anthem tonight (March 26, 2020) at 18h00.
We are ready. Will you stand with us?
