Charitable Work
Alexander was involved in supporting a number of charities. In Saint Lucia, the country Alexander represented in his playing days, he established the Sacred Sports Foundation www.sacredsportsinc.com to help increase sporting opportunities for St Lucian children. The Foundation continues to thrive under the stewardship of his brother Delroy and sister Nova, which have continued to build on the legacy started by Keith. The Sacred Sports Foundation has received grants from the European Union, Australia Government and UNESCO, for a range of sports development and education programmes. The Foundation also has a partnership with the St. Lucia Football Association www.saintluciafa.com.

Famous quotes containing the words charitable and/or work:
“She was so charitable and so pitous
She wolde wepe, if that she saugh a mous
Kaught in a trappe, if it were deed or bledde.”

“In most modern instances, interpretation amounts to the philistine refusal to leave the work of art alone. Real art has the capacity to make us nervous. By reducing the work of art to its content and then interpreting that, one tames the work of art. Interpretation makes art manageable, conformable.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
