(EDITOR’S NOTE: I ran across this article in the archives of BAHAMAS CHRONICLE and I decided to publish it again now that my good friend Ginger Moxey is again “in the spotlight” as the PLP’s candidate for the Pineridge constituency of Grand Bahama.)
WASHINGTON, D.C., Sept. 2, 2018 — Sister Cities International (SCI) elected Ginger Moxey, Social Entrepreneur of The Bahamas and dedicated citizen diplomat, to its Board of Directors on August 3, 2018 at the 2018 Annual Conference in Aurora, Colorado.
Moxey was elected by Sister Cities International’s members: cities, counties, states, and other communities in the United States and abroad.
“Sister Cities International is delighted to have Ginger Moxey, a leading Caribbean entrepreneur, forging meaningful and productive links between the Caribbean and the United States in ways that build mutual trust, understanding and cooperation,” noted Roger- Mark De Souza, President and CEO of Sister Cities International.
Moxey is the founder of two organizations that relate to the work and mission of SCI to connect globally and thrive locally: Immerse Bahamas, a social enterprise, and 700 partners, a non-profit organization. She first became involved with Sister Cities International in 2014 when Immerse Bahamas became a member of Sister Cities International. She then facilitated the founding of two new sister city relationships: Cat Island, Bahamas with Richton Park, Illinois; and Freeport, Bahamas with Concord, North Carolina.
Since then, Moxey has dedicated most of her time to strengthening sister city relationships and developing new ones throughout the Caribbean, and has been relentless in spreading the message and unique opportunities that sister city relationships provide for business, cultural, tourism, educational and humanitarian exchanges.
