West Indian Cricket Commentator Reds Perreira is appealing to the Trinidad and Tobago public for financial support to assist Guyanese born writer and commentator Sean Devers, who has been diagnosed with a brain tumor.
Devers who lives in his native Guyana is due to have an operation in Trinidad on October 2nd, 2012 at a cost of 35,000 US dollars.
The former Guyana Under -19 Off Spinner has been a journalist for the last 15 years and is well respected throughout the region.
During which time he has worked for the Caribbean Media Corporation, Line and Length Network and the British Broadcasting Corporation.
The Trinidad Promotions Group All Sports headed by Tony Harford, will stage shortly a match between Trinidad and Tobago and Bangladesh on September 8th, 2012 where the popular Trini Posse Group has volunteered to carry out a collection in aid of Sean Devers.
A similar appeal has already been launched in Barbados, and a special fundraising game is being planned at Cave Hill, University of the West Indies with the support of Tony Cozier and Andrew Mason.
The prognosis for the surgery looks good and Sean Devers is very positive about the outcome.
A bank account will be shortly announced to allow the local and business community of Trinidad and Tobago to contribute or donate funds in aid of his surgery.
United Insurance has kindly underwritten the cost of Perreira´s travel to Barbados and Trinidad and Tobago.
