Tue, Mar 3rd 2015, 01:38 PM

The Sandals Foundation, The Coca-Cola Company and Caribbean Bottling Company Bahamas are excited to announce that “Vibes on the Island” has been rescheduled for Saturday, April 25, 2015.

This year’s fundraising concert in support of the Providing Access to Continued Education programme (P.A.C.E.) will also be sponsored, in part, by: Flight Centre Travel Group, JetBlue Airways, Columbian Emeralds, and The Nassau Guardian Limited.

“Vibes on the Island 2015” will once again take place on Sandals’ Private Island at Sandals Royal Bahamian Spa Resort & Offshore Island in Nassau, Bahamas. The charity fundraiser will feature live performances from internationally acclaimed reggae recording artist, Tarrus Riley with special guests Dean Fraser & the Blak Soil Band and reggae sensation, Chronixx and ZincFence Redemption.

All proceeds from this year’s benefit concert will go to P.A.C.E. and to the completion of their building fund. P.A.C.E. provides much needed support and education to teenage mothers while promoting awareness to help reduce teen pregnancy among young adults in Nassau, Bahamas. As a proud partner, the Sandals Foundation – the non-profit arm of Sandals Resorts, Beaches Resorts and Grand Pineapple Resorts – remains committed to raising funds that will see to the completion of building a brand new, multi-purpose facility ensuring that young mothers have access to a support center that will accommodate administrative, health care, nursery and academic services.

“Due to unforeseen weather conditions, we were unfortunately unable to host “Vibes on the Island” last October,” noted Heidi Clarke, Director of Programs for the Sandals Foundation. “We are so pleased, however, to have rescheduled what promises to be an energetic and sensational event with top-notch performers. We are looking forward to a successful evening thanks to the support of our local and international sponsors, and encourage Bahamians near and far to come out as we together raise funds for a very worthy cause.”

In the past, the Sandals Foundation has supported P.A.C.E. in its fundraising efforts by establishing the Buy A Brick Program in Nassau where guests at Sandals Royal Bahamian are able to purchase a brick with funds going towards the construction of the center. The Foundation also established a partnership with The Nassau Bahamas Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. to reinforce ongoing fundraising efforts.
