📢 COMMUNITY NOTICES
CASH GRANT REMINDER:
If you are an eligible Guyanese citizen 18 and over and have not yet received your cash grant, the government has indicated the rollout is phased. Public servants and government employees are receiving this week. Additional cohorts will follow. Ensure your bank account information is current with your employer/relevant authority.
BANK ACCOUNT REMINDER:
The cash grant is being disbursed digitally. If you do not have a bank account, you cannot receive the digital transfer. The government has been consistently encouraging all Guyanese to open accounts. This is a practical matter.
ELECTRIC MOTORCYCLE USERS:
The Guyana Chronicle has raised concerns about road safety related to electric motorcycles. The Bounty Board is not here to lecture — but if you’re riding one, please be aware that traffic laws apply to you the same as to everyone else. Just a gentle notice.
🏫 EDUCATION CORNER
National Grade Six Assessment (NGSA) results are expected to be released on or before July 5, 2026, per the Education Minister. Parents of students sitting NGSA this year: mark the calendar.
Record 800 secondary students certified with job skills in 2025 — this was reported recently and worth noting. Vocational skills certification is expanding. Good development for students who want options beyond traditional academic paths.
🏥 HEALTH CORNER
AIDS-related deaths in the Caribbean have declined by over 60 percent, according to Health Minister Dr. Frank Anthony. This is a significant regional public health achievement. Testing and treatment access have improved substantially across the region.
