SdM Captain Peter Chapman recently presented his chosen charity, CRACEP – Cooperativa de Reeducação e Apoio à Criança Excepcional de Portimão, with a new computer system which they will use in their administration department allowing them to provide improved services to the whole organisation. The system cost €900 and was paid for by the SdM Members by way of their generous support to the Captain’s Charity.
In addition Peter also presented CRACEP with a refurbished computer system donated to the Captain’s Charity by FLIC (Funds for Locally Identified Causes). This system is planned to be used in the re-education centre where mentally handicapped young adults are trained to enable them to obtain employment.
Maria de Lourdes Gouveia the President of CRACEP explained that the organisation relies on the support of the whole community to allow them to deliver their services and expressed her thanks to the members of Serra de Monchique Golf Club and FLIC for their generosity.
