In January 2021, the Foundation for Environmental Education (FEE), in partnership with Bahamas Reef Environment Educational Foundation (BREEF) wrapped up the Children for Children Campaign after successfully raising over $6000 for the recovery of 12 Eco-Schools in The Bahamas that had been seriously damaged by Hurricane Dorian in 2019.

One year later - and delayed due to Covid-19 protocols and travel challenges - BREEF and their partners on Grand Bahama and Abaco were able to present each of the 12 affected Eco-Schools with letters and cheques in person during December 2021.

The official disbursement of the letters and cheques to the five Eco-Schools on Grand Bahama was carried out by Ms. Olethea Gardiner from Keep Grand Bahama Clean, who is also a member of the Eco-Schools Bahamas (ESB) Steering Committee.
