Major Boost to Grand Bassa County Soccer Team, as Prominent Son Makes Significant Donation
With just days to the kick off of the biggest Sports Festival in Liberia, National County Sports Meet, a prominent son of Grand Bassa County and former Representative candidate Hon. Gaius F. Barsee-Giah have made a significant donation to the County's soccer team.
Barsee-Giah on Friday, January 4, 2025 donated 11 pieces of soccer shoes to the team worth $440.00 US. In a remark, Gaius stated that the donation is his way of motivating the team, as he wished them a successful season. The donation took place at the team's camp in the New Barrack Community.
This marks a significant step forward in the County's preparation for the upcoming National County Sports Stadium.
Receiving the items on behalf of the team, Mr. Garmondeh Kangar, Vice Chair for Operation of the BSA lauded the gesture, and called on other citizens of the county to emulate the good example of Hon. Barsee-Giah.
Also speaking, the team's manager, Mr. Ezekiel Johnson thanked Barsee-Giah for his timely intervention, adding that he has been one of the major contributors to the county team and other sporting activities in the county.
