The American Caribbean Maritime
Foundation (ACMF) announced that
it will honor three outstanding leaders
in the maritime sector in the Caribbean
at its annual Anchor Awards
to be held Friday, Oct. 11 at the New
York Yacht Club.
Taking home the Anchor Award
prize this year will be Remy Vyzelman,
president and CEO of Integra
Marine; Gregory Purdy, SVP Operations,
Royal Caribbean International;
and David Harding, past president
of the Caribbean Maritime Shipping
Association, and Barbados Port Inc.
Since its inception in 2016,
the ACMF has donated more than
$200,000 toward scholarships and
classroom construction to the Caribbean
Maritime University (CMU)
based in Kingston, Jamaica.
The ACMF recently launched the
Fern Khan Grant for students struggling
to finish their degree at the
CMU. Eleven scholarships, including
the ACMF / Royal Caribbean International
Scholarships, have been awarded
to students from The Bahamas,
St. Vincent and the Grenadines, and
Jamaica by the ACMF and the foundation
has raised a Lecture Theater
in the name of ACMF largest donor,
Roland Malins-Smith, founder and
retired president of Seafreight Lines
Ltd. Mr. Malins-Smith is serving as
honorary chair of the 2019 Gala, having
received an Anchor Award in 2018
for more than 50 years of leadership
in the sector.
“Aside from being about the students,
this is also about partnership,”
says ACMF Founder and President,
Dr. Geneive Brown Metzger, former
Consul of Jamaica in New York. “We
would not be able to accomplish our
mission without the generosity and
commitment of our donors and sponsors.
“Of vital importance to the Caribbean
economy, is the maritime sector,
and it requires a well-trained, professional
and local workforce of port
operators, mariners, logistics staff
to ensure its future,” says Emerson
Alleyne, executive vice president of
the Barbados Shipping Association.
Sponsors of the 2019 gala include
Royal Caribbean International; Integra
Marine Services; Hudson Analytix;
Chalos & Co, P.C.; Monarch
Yachts; Barbados Shipping Association;
Caribbean Shipping Association;
David Harding MBE; and Karren
Dunkley, EdD.
