00:00So as you can see, we are standing in a one-of-a-kind $7 million investment for Tobago.
00:08This is part of the Jade Monkey Limited brand, and we are partnered with one of the largest companies
00:16that are responsible for this system, a wind system, in the world next to France.
00:24The investment of $7 million into the Tobago economy was no easy task, according to management.
00:32But Jade Monkey Integrated Entertainment Hub did not stop there, as over 90 persons are employed.
00:40We currently have here over 90 employees, and that comes with families, children.
00:49Encouraging young boys to stay away from crime, the Entertainment Hub has planned an upcoming workshop for boys.
00:57Our back-to-school charity, where we are focused on a workshop, a career day for boys between ages of 9 and 15.
01:07So we are trying to get them away from a life of crime, and try to impact, you know, in a positive sense to these young boys
01:17that are going on to school in September.
01:19Giving back to their community remains top priority, as over $300,000 has been spent on their Christmas bonanza,
01:28with 1,000 families served.
01:31All right, so we're so proud of our Christmas bonanza.
01:36We have been doing it for the past three years.
01:40This year would be our fourth year, and we have already invested over $350,000
01:46giving back to the children of Tobago.
01:50So we're intending to go bigger.
01:52Last year we did 1,000 children.
01:54We're looking to go a little bigger so that we could reach a lot more homes with our charity venture.
02:00The group also collaborates with the Child Protection Unit of the TTPS,
02:05Children's Homes, Down Syndrome Awareness, and other groups.
