It goes only by a lot number now but pretty soon lot number 3587 in the West Landivar area will be home for the Parents Association for Children with Special Needs (PACSN). Half of the work towards building a multipurpose center was achieved today when the Ministry of Natural Resources signed over the parcel of land to the PACSN. Two Cabinet ministers turned up the for the event and Education Minister Francis Fonseca told us why today's lease agreement is so implement.
Hon. Francis Fonseca, Minister of Education
"Over the last few months we have worked on trying to get the parcel of land for the parents association. So its worked very well. Everybody worked together, everybody was committed, everybody understood about getting the land. That was only the beginning really. Now the challenge is to raise funds. The International Women's Club has been very instrumental in raising funds and so we are very grateful for their support and in the weeks and months and head we'll all be working together to make sure we put a building on the land."
The other Cabinet Minister present was Deputy Prime Minister Johnny Briceno.
