Pure in Heart Ministries International (a non-profit religious organization) conducted their Pre-Labour Day Project two Saturdays ago at the Strathmore Children’s Home.

Strathmore Children’s Home is located in Spanish Town, St. Catherine and provides care and protection for children 13 years old and under.

Pastor Ryan prayed for the children and quality time was spent with them. Vision books were created based on a motivational talk given to them.

They were also given the tools to use their minds and creativity to decorate boxes with their names for storing inspiring and motivational quotes.

Projects like these often go unmentioned or unheard of because they may be considered trivial and are conducted by such selfless persons that are pure in heart and believe in service above self. However, they have a huge impact on those they have taken the time out to assist and these projects inspire others to make an impact and change as well.

Kudos to Pure in Heart Ministries International and their team for their charitable services. Our Children are our Future.

About Sarah’s Child

The Sarah’s Children Charity was recently launched on March 8, 2018 on International Women’s Day at the Hilton Rose Hall Hotel and Spa in St. James, Montego Bay.

The focus of the charity is to spread awareness that it is not ok to remain silent when witnessing abuse. They wish to provide all the protection possible for our children and our elderly.

Sarah’s Children is the result of realising founder, Janet Silvera’s dream as well as her friends’ with the same vision to honour her mother, Sarah Darling-Findlay who led by example. They also share the same desire to give a voice to those without a voice.

District 7020 Rotaract Representative, Jevaughn Rhymer and members of his District Board handing over Learning aids to the BVI Autism Centre last Thursday, April 12.

Rotaract District 7020 (RD7020) is a non-profit organization, which is the youth arm of Rotary District 7020 and by extension, Rotary International. RD720  has clubs across the Caribbean such as Jamaica, Cayman Islands, St. Maarten (Dutch), St. Martin (French), Haiti, Anguilla, The Bahamas, Tortola (B.V.I), St. Thomas (U.S.V.I) and the Turks and Caicos Islands. In honour of Rotary’s World Autism Month, Rotaract District 7020’s Representative, Jevaughn Rhymer and members of his District Board handed over learning aids to the British Virgin Islands (BVI) Autism Centre last Thursday, April 12.

The items were purchased from the donations given by Rotaract District 7030 (including clubs from St. Kitts & Nevis, Trinidad & Tobago, Guyana, French Guiana and Suriname) after Hurricane Irma hit the island.

Rotaractors will continue to work with the Autism Centre and assist with post hurricane revival efforts.

Wing Sauce Competition and Farmer’s Market this Saturday in Mona!

by CharitiesHealth & Fitness

Screenshot_2018-03-13-15-17-16-1.png

There are so many things happening this weekend! Not to worry though, if you schedule your time well, you can make it to all of the events.

Non-profit organization, New Kingston Rotaract Club (Youth arm of Rotary) is having their annual Wing Sauce Competition this Saturday, March 24th by the Mona Dam. However, this time they are also having a Farmer’s Market encouraging us to eat healthy and buy our local produce, while contributing to charity at the same time. It’s a win-win for everyone.

Judging and sampling usually takes place at about 2:30/3:00pm. Suga will be judging too!

So, after returning from the Jamaica Coffee Festival in Newcastle, you can make your way over to the Mona Dam. You can enjoy watching non-profit organizations battle to become the Wing Sauce Champs, probably sample a few tasty wings, buy some fresh, local produce and then head over to the National Stadium to see our Boys and Girls Champs. After all, the hot races are usually run in the late afternoon and evening.

You can then pat yourselves on the back for supporting Brand Jamaica, contributing to Charity and supporting our future in Education and Athletics all in one day. Scouts from some of the best colleges around the world will be at the National Stadium to watch and recruit our athletes.

Keep up with the New Kingston Rotaract Club by following them on Instagram @nkrcjamaica and if you are between the ages of 18-30, see how you can join them!

Stay tuned for your update on the Jamaica Coffee Festival later this week!

The Lions and Leos of Downtown Kingston are ‘Relieving World Hunger’

The Lions and Leos of Downtown Kingston have a monthly feeding at the St. Matthew’s Anglican Church in Allman Town. Though a few months ago, Suga is happy to highlight how they started their year under the theme, ‘Relieving World Hunger’, feeding over 100 senior citizens on Sunday, January 25, 2015.

The seniors were treated to a scrumptious, filling meal of Curried Goat, Rice and Peas, Tossed Salad and Fruit juice, topped off by Ice cream and Fruit cake for dessert.

It was also an inspirational day, as members of the St. Matthew’s Anglican Youth Fellowship offered prayers and inspiration via songs to the seniors present.

Items of clothing and shoes were offered to individuals in need as well.

Kudos to the Lions and Leos of Downtown Kingston for keeping up such a thoughtful and helpful initiative.

Have a Happy and Holy Easter Everyone!
