Resource Center Now Open! We've officially opened our resource center and accepted our first set of students. The resource center while observing international CoVid protocols gives students access to a place where they have free access to internet and a place to get their school work done. Unfortunately many students around the country don't have access at home. We're aiming to tackle that problem in Negril with the opening of our resource center.
On Saturday December 19th, we were fortunate to be able to give away 23 care packages to families in need. We followed up with another 21 packages on December 24th. Each care package included flour, rice, sardines, tuna, corn beef, tin mackerel, oil and milk. Due to the ongoing pandemic we staggered the times in which people could come and pick up their care packages. Thanks do continued help from our supporters we aim to continue giving away care packages throughout the duration of the pandemic. Since start of the virus and the lockdowns that followed we've given away over 160 care packages.

Over the past two weeks we've been busy giving out free eggs, and chickens in the community. We've given to the Negril police station, St. Anthony's soup kitchen and to families around our community. The eggs and chicken are compliments of Winston Wellington's farm where he continues to grow crops to distribute in these harsh economic times for many families.
