Corporate Hands | EdgeChem invests $1.48m in back-to-school grants

EdgeChem has disbursed $1.48 million in back-to-school grants to students across multiple parishes for the 2025 academic year. The initiative, executed through handover ceremonies at EdgeChem retail locations, supported students from the early childhood to tertiary levels and also extended grants to beneficiaries of the Strong Fathers Foundation. Founder and Deputy Executive Chairman, Doreen Frankson, noted that the programme underscores EdgeChem’s commitment to education, community development, and national progress.
