An initiative aimed at beating Bermuda's drug problem has received a boost with the handing over of a cheque for $50,000.

The Bank of Bermuda's Centennial Trust made the donation to the Council Partners -- the second instalment of its three-year $150,000 commitment to the group.

Council Partners is a coalition of five groups who have joined forces and raised $5 million for a five-year programme of anti-drugs schemes.

The cheque was handed over by Mr. Charles Vaughan-Johnson, president and chief executive officer of the Bank of Bermuda who said the donation embodied the Trust's approach to contributing to Bermuda's social infrastructure.

"You can't build for the future with just one donation,'' he said. "You have to plan ahead to make a sustained effort to change things.

"That is why we have chosen to work with the Council Partners and groups like them -- they are engaged in long-term work for the Island's future.'' The Centennial Trust was established in 1989 to mark the 100th anniversary of the Bank of Bermuda and has since contributed more than $3 million to non-profit organisations dedicated to improving the quality of life in Bermuda.

THANK YOU -- Mr. Charles Vaughan-Johnson hands over a $50,000 cheque to Mrs.
