LaGrange, West Bank Demerara - In a significant move that marks a new chapter for community development in Guyana, Shoshana Bernstein-Leizerowitz, the Founder and Community Organizer of Bethel Community Outreach “BethelCoGuyana”, made a courtesy call to His Excellency Ambassador Samuel A. Hinds, O.E., Ambassador of the Cooperative Republic of Guyana to the USA, and Permanent Representative to the OAS, at the Guyana Embassy in Washington DC.

This pivotal meeting, held today, underscores a deep commitment to fostering collaboration and support for Guyana’s most vulnerable populations. Ms. Bernstein-Leizerowitz and Ambassador Hinds discussed various matters of mutual interest, focusing on BethelCoGuyana’s mission and vision for a more inclusive and supportive society in Guyana. https://www.facebook.com/bethelcoguyana

BethelCoGuyana, under Ms. Bernstein-Leizerowitz’s leadership, intends to be a beacon of hope and support for single women, women-headed households, and survivors of gender-based violence. The organization's initiatives extend beyond immediate aid, encompassing efforts to improve health, education, and economic outcomes in local communities. Central to their work is the meaningful development of infrastructure and community spaces, particularly for Jews in Guyana, enhancing their ability to live, worship, and contribute significantly to Guyana’s development.

A noteworthy topic of the meeting was BethelCoGuyana’s intention to initiate cultural exchange programs. These programs aim to bridge the Jewish diaspora and Guyana, fostering a greater understanding of the opportunities within the nation. Moreover, they are set to facilitate partnerships that will help Guyanese companies leverage Israeli technological innovation, marking a step towards global collaboration and local empowerment.

This landmark meeting promises to be the first of many in a series of collaborative efforts between BethelCoGuyana and the Guyanese government. It is a testament to the power of community and governmental bodies working in tandem to uplift and transform society, especially for those in dire need of support and empowerment.

This meeting with Ambassador Hinds not only highlights BethelCoGuyana’s commitment to these causes but also opens doors for future collaboration with governmental entities. Ms. Bernstein-Leizerowitz was accompanied by Ms. Kathleen Monteram.
