“I made a promise to myself that I would do something good for a positive organization, if my event went well so I made a conscious decision to make a contribution to the library. This contribution, in my opinion, is a contribution to the public of our island. This workstation is specifically for the younger kids, who I find should be familiar with technology as our community continues to become more technologically advanced”, stated Bertaux 'Mr Rude' Fleming, CEO and Founder of Xtratight Entertainment. Managing Directors, Ecedro Richardson and Adolphus Richardson Jr. of Adolphus Office Supplies and Technology, made the donation of the workstation, complete with a desk, scanner, copy machine, printer and mouse possible, by offering them at a discounted price to Xtratight, in support of this worthy cause. The Philipsburg Jubilee Library expressed their sincerest gratitude to Xtratight for contributing the workstation to the library’s Youth Section.“Every week we have hundreds of youngsters making use of the public computers at our library. A lot of these children do not have access to computers, printers and internet at home. Sometimes we do not have enough computers to serve all of these youngsters. We intend to make good use of this workstation in the Youth Section of our library and encourage other business to follow suit, as we continue to provide quality service to the young growing youth of St. Maarten”, remarked Monique Alberts, Director of the Philipsburg Jubilee Library.
