PHILIPSBURG:—VOICES Foundation will be hosting its yearly Cultural Ancestral Emancipation Day Celebration virtually on Thursday, July 1, 2021, says Founder-President Ms. Nkosazana Esther Illis. This will be the second year that the event is not held at Emilio Wilson Park as customary. VOICES invite you at 2 pm to join our Zoom Link ID: 801 194 5024 Password: VOICES
The theme is “Building On Our Ancestral Legacy” VOICES will be honoring some of our Elders in the community who are older than 90 years. We were really looking forward to hosting our 10th event at the Emilio Wilson Park this year. Seeing that the Covid-19 Pandemic numbers are rising, we are not taking any risk with our precious Elders and the people of St. Maarten. We must protect and keep them safe.
We would like to thank the people of St. Maarten for their dedicated support over the years and this year is no exception. VOICES Foundation is encouraging you to join our Zoom Celebration and enjoy live music, song, and poetry.
Heartfelt condolences go out to the family and friends who have lost love ones during the Covid-19 Pandemic.
