While sticking with this year's objective to reduce the availability of single use plastic bags, we donated our environmentally friendly canvas shopping bags to the club. Members of the club along with volunteers handed out bags free of charge to customers who visited retail stores on Saturday, June 4, 2011.

Youth and Education still a priority for FortisTCI - Students visit North Caicos
Grade SP2-3 of the Ianthe Pratt Primary School was treated to an educational visit to North and Middle Caicos during the month of May. This trip culminated activities geared at educating students about Turks and Caicos' culture.
The purpose of the trip allowed students first-hand experience of the various historical sites, which allowed a visual connection to what they have already learnt in the classrooms. We at FortisTCI always encourage learning and will remain supportive of our students and the entire education system.
PPC Sponsors Wine Cellar Golf & Fishing Tournament
The Wine Cellar Golf and Fishing Tournament was one of several community events that we have supported in the form of a monetary sponsorship. The event was held on Friday, March 25, 2011 with the much-anticipated fishing tournament at the Turtle Cove Marina. The weekend of activities culminated at the world-renowned Provo Golf Club with an ever so competitive Golf Tournament. A prize giving ceremony was also held and highlighted the best of the best in several different categories with a large portion of the proceeds being donated to the Edward Gartland Youth Centre and the Provo Hockey League.
Annual Spring Fun Walk
Once again, our annual Spring Fun Walk was the community buzz this season. This event is held each year in an effort to encourage healthy lifestyles while promoting unity among team members. On Saturday, April 9, 2011, employees, families, corporate partners, civic organisations and many individuals from the communities joined us for a hearty walk that started from the IGA parking lot. The walk ended Downtown where participants were treated to a delicious breakfast.
For every PPC staff member who completed the walk, PPC gave a monetary donation to the Salvation Army to support the worthy work that they are doing in our communities.
PPC Recycles Cable Reels for Playground
PPC Ltd. continues their drive to preserve the TCI’s environment by reducing waste as part of their ongoing environmental campaign. On May 4, 2011, PPC’s team collectively decided to donate some of the old cable reels to Mills Institute as additional outdoor furniture for their already eye catching playground. To give a more attractive and fun look to the reels while keeping in line with the theme colour of the school, staff members of the utility company planned a community project where they added a splash of colour to the reels before presenting them. Red and yellow reels now brighten up the play area, and provide additional seating for the students during lunch and recreation periods.
PPC's Food Drive
PPC Ltd continues its efforts in assisting the local communities wherever possible. During the Christmas Season, team members volunteered their time to deliver food items to St. Monica's Anglican Church, Jericho Baptist and the Provo Children's Home. These donations were all given in good will to help families throughout the holiday season.
PPC Ltd Remains Committed to the Communities of Middle Caicos

To do this we're making changes to four major areas of operations: the enhancement of optimal plume dispersion, reduction in noise pollution, preventative measures of water contamination, and staff education plan.
As part of the programme, we're working towards achieving the ISO 14,001 standard by 2012, which is the international benchmark on environmental management. Our Environmental Officer Eustace Musgrove has tackled our existing safety and environmental processes head on and has advised on new environmental and safety procedures that we can implement.
What Our Customers Say
A customer survey was carried out in June and July to get a better idea of our customer’s level of satisfaction with our service and to find out whether their satisfaction has changed in the last year. The survey revealed that more customers were satisfied with our service in 2009 than in 2008! Other areas which our customers gave us high ratings were in our response to queries and our ability to resolve problems. Even though the satisfaction level is high among our customers there is still room for improvement in terms of the speed with which we deal with customers, the methods we use to communicate with customers and how knowledgeable we are about our services. Congratulations to all our staff on a good job. Our goal is to achieve 100% satisfaction in all areas!

Gartland Youth Centre was selected because we recognise the positive impact that it has on our youth and we want to encourage more uplifting social and educational activities throughout the islands.
Creative Recycling on South Caicos
The aftermath of Hurricane Ike in September left many electricity poles in need of repair and replacement on the island of South Caicos. Rather than simply discarding these poles, the team at AEP Ltd. thought of a creative way to reuse the poles, and beautify the playground of the Iris Stubbs Primary School at the same time. The poles were cleaned and painted bright colours and were used to construct an enclosure around the swing which creates and designates an area for play. The area was cleared of any harmful materials and extra sand was put in to maintain the safety of the students. The end result is an attractive playground area that the kids can really enjoy!
PPC Provo Cricket League
PPC Provo Cricket League came to an exciting end after six months of electrifying cricket action at the Downtown Ball Park. We were the title sponsors of the PPC Provo Cricket League where the island’s leading cricket teams battled it out for the winning title.

Our Daphne Brooks-Penn was on hand to award the St. Lucian Hitters with their winning trophy!
