Digicel announces record Black Friday sales
Throughout the day, hundreds of customers visited Digicel stores in Tortola and Virgin Gorda. Both new and loyal customers were rewarded with exclusive Black Friday deals and received free gifts throughout the day as Digicel celebrated their Christmas campaign ‘Get Gifted.'
In eight years, Digicel has established itself as the most popular network in the Territory due to its ongoing commitment to deliver the best value, the best service and the best network experience for all customers in the Virgin Islands.
Throughout 2016, Digicel continued to display their strong commitment to the community through its consistent investment in youth, sports, and culture.
To date, Digicel and the Government of the Virgin Islands through the Ministry of Education and Culture signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to provide Internet access to all public schools within the Territory.
Additionally, Digicel joined the Adopt-A-School initiative, an initiative by the Ministry of Education and Culture, to adopt the Territory’s largest primary school, Althea Scatliffe Primary. The adoption saw Digicel making a contribution of $5000 to the committee while pledging its support to the overall success of the school.
Digicel has also partnered with the Department of Youth Affairs and Sports to host Gen-Y Factor singing competition. Durnel Sanderson emerged the winner and became a Digicel brand ambassador.
Digicel BVI hosted the Digicel NBA Jumpstart Elite Camp from October 7-9. The Elite Camp featured the top 63 players – 45 boys and 18 girls – from the Digicel NBA Jumpstart Clinics held in nine Caribbean countries during August. Seven-time NBA Champion Robert Horry and former NBA head coach Lionel Hollins and two-time WNBA All-Star Skylar Diggins coached the athletes. At the end of the Elite Camp the top 13 players were selected–eight boys and five girls—were chosen to take part in an authentic NBA experience from December 6-11 in New York. Among the 13 selected were, Shauliqua Fahie, Mahkayla Pickering, Omar Walker and Demoi Bradley from the VI. Last year, two VI players – D'moi M. Hodge and Malachy S. Payne made the trip to New York.
Continuing in sports, Digicel partnered with the BVI Football Association (BVIFA) for the BVIFA High School Football League. Virgin Gorda, Bregado Flax Education Centre is representing Digicel in the league.
