GRAND CAYMAN (GIS) – August 1, 2019……Today, Hon. Franz Manderson, MBE, Cert Hon., JP – Deputy Governor, proudly unveiled the new DG’s 5k 2019 logo.

The logo, which is refreshed every year, is designed to celebrate the various charitable recipients it aims to support.

“I am thrilled to be able to work closely with the various charities. Every year we aim to assist foundations that are tirelessly at work to provide services that reach areas of need in our community. I would like to thank our sponsors who partner with us in this initiative which improves quality of life, drives awareness and facilitates change. Of course, I would be remiss not to also thank members of the public who register and join the fun in support of a good cause – we could not make this a success without each of you and I welcome the community to register early,” commented Mr Manderson.

Registration is open on the CaymanActive website www.caymanactive.com/dg5k
