NGHS Non-Nobis Foundation Announces Vintage Vibes Retro Party Fundraiser

Foundation Mission

The Naparima Girls’ High School (NGHS) Non-Nobis Foundation, now in its 14th year, exists to promote volunteerism within the NGHS community. Its motto, “non-novis solemni…omnibus,” underscores a commitment to serve not only themselves but everyone around them. Founder members explain that volunteerism is woven into the school’s culture and DNA.

Event Planning and Purpose

The foundation is hosting its second and final fundraiser of the year—a Vintage Vibes Retro Party—scheduled for 23 September, the night before the school holiday. The event marks the first retro-themed fundraiser and is designed to be low-effort for volunteers while offering a fun, community-focused night. Organisers anticipate close to 300 attendees, with expectations of higher turnout.

Venue, Timing and Ticket Information

The party will take place at the lobby of Paria Suites, La Romain, from 8 p.m. (some announcements cite a start at 9 p.m.) until 1 a.m. Admission is priced at TT$200, an affordable rate that includes door prizes. Tickets can be purchased at the NGHS Bursary, Nicosa Desserts & Café, or directly from any Non-Nobis Foundation member. For further details, callers can reach the organizers at 688-9337 or 740-7695.

Entertainment and Dress Code

Entertainment will feature DJ Scooby alongside guest DJs from 95.1 FM. Attendees are encouraged to embrace the retro theme—bell-buttons, afros, and vintage attire are welcome—to enhance the party atmosphere.

Fundraising Goal

Proceeds from the Vintage Vibes Retro Party will support the foundation’s volunteer-driven projects, enabling continued engagement with students, youth leaders, and the wider community. Organisers stress that supporting the event is a way for patrons to contribute directly to the foundation’s mission of fostering service and volunteerism.

Final Call to Action

Listeners are urged to purchase tickets, attend the retro celebration, and help the NGHS Non-Nobis Foundation continue its work promoting volunteerism across Trinidad and Tobago.
