The Book Buddy Programme and the Blind cricketers Association of Trinidad definitely inspires hope and being apart this event with past colleges/ team mates will surely be a fun and meaningful one. Im excited to perform a couple songs at the event as its would be my first time in Trinidad performing and in addition it will be great to catch up with my old cricket mates.

With all proceeds going to the important charities, the all White 47 affair will take place at the stylish Estate 101, Maraval, Trinidad.
Speaking on his philanthropist endeavors in a previous release to the media, Dwayne Bravo stated “Giving back has always been important to me. I came from humble beginnings and am happy to give other people, especially children, the chance to succeed and recognize their own potential. 47’s first time up to bat was more successful than I even dreamed and I will definitely be doing this every year and hope to give even more to more charities as it grows”.
