In order to keep the spotlight on the importance of Preparedness throughout the 2021 Hurricane Season, Sagicor General Insurance Inc created a social media campaign in which they asked the public “What’s in your Go bag?” Persons were invited to submit a list of the contents of their Go Bags. “Go Bags” contain items comprised of one’s emergency checklist to be kept on hand in case of emergency evacuation during a hurricane.
On completion of the competition, Tamara Felicien emerged as the winner in St Lucia and she recently collected her generator from Deborah Raoul, Assistant General Manager, Operations for Sagicor General Insurance Inc in the Eastern Caribbean.
The competition ran online over three weeks in September and offered persons the chance to win a Generator valued at US$1,000. The lists submitted were judged based on the inclusion of items required in case of evacuation as well as the inclusion of important documents to be able to recover and seamlessly resume life post disaster as the overall practicality of the bag with respect to weight and portability.
