Through Bahamas Primary School Student of the Year Awards Partnership
REV – The nation’s only 100% Bahamian Owned triple play provider brought its collective cash donation to The Bahamas Primary School Student of the Year Awards Programme to more than $50,000. This is REV’s 3rd consecutive year of serving as title sponsor for the premier educational awards programme for elementary school students in the Bahamas. As part of a 5-year agreement launched in 2019, each year REV donates $15,000 in cash to the programme with $7,000 of that sponsorship going directly towards a scholarship for the winning student. This donation is separate from in-kind donations in the form of media production, free advertising and air time on OUR TV.
