And because it has gotten burgled like that church one too many times, the cancer society is getting serious with security.
At the beginning of the month, we told you how the Belize Cancer Society had been burglarized for the 5th or 6th time.
The Cancer Society sent out a public call for help to assist them in acquiring surveillance equipment to secure the facility. The Feinstein Group of
Companies answered that call, and today donated over $6,000 in equipment to build a sophisticated system, which should, at best, deter thieves, and at
worse, catch them in the act of stealing from the Non-Profit Organization.
The Feinstein Group's Fort Point Security officially handed over the system today, and the media was invited to witness it. 7News was there, and the
Vice President of the Cancer Society told us that this is a very welcome donation:
Dianne Finnegan - Vice President, Belize Cancer Society
"The Feinstein group saw the importance of stepping in and assisting. When it comes to the issue of organisations that give freely to help the general
public but specifically those diagnosed with cancer, it kind of plays with your emotions and we're so grateful that Mr. and Mrs. Feinstein stepped in
and decided to give us not just the security system itself, but extending an entire year of maintaining the system. The monitoring of the entire system
making sure every that goes on within the cancer society especially after hours, that they are able to monitor and assists to prevent another break
in."
Santiago Daffron - Manager, Fort Point Security
"After Fort Point Security and the Feinstein group learned about what happened, after a board meeting, it was decided by our president Mr. Michael
Feinstein, our vice president Mrs. Melita Feinstein that the work was going to be a donation. We installed a full HD surveillance system along with an
alarm system. On top of that they installation, the equipment, the systems are going to me monitored 24/7 by our personnel at Fort Point Security."
The camera system is set up to cover the majority of the compound to allow for surveillance without blind spots.
