Throwback Thursday (#tbt) to Suga Lifestyle Charities and Rotaract Club of New Kingston donating Neonatal SpO2 Sensors to the Spanish Town Hospital in St. Catherine that turned 70 last year June.

The Sensors were handed over by Gabrielle Burgess, Director of Suga Lifestyle Charities Ltd. and President of Rotaract Club of New Kingston, Horace Collins on Tuesday, April 18th to CEO, Ms. Jacqueline Ellis and Dr. Tracia James Powell, Consultant in charge of the Special Care Nursery.

The Nellcor Oximax Neonatal SpO2 Sensors donated, have high accuracy in the clinical evaluation of blood oxygen levels in Neonates.

Dr. Powell stated that disposable Sensors and Circuits that connect to the various machines used in the Nursery are always needed. They were very appreciative to receive them and also stated that Neonatal Care is expensive.

This Project was executed as a result of Part Proceeds from Suga Lifestyle’s Christmas Connection, since Suga Lifestyle Charities focuses on advancing Health Care and Education. Our Children are Our Future and we are forever grateful for your support at our events.

#tbt to the Joy when Suga Lifestyle Charities Ltd. & Rotaract Club of New Kingston Donate!

by CharitiesWhat's Hot

Yesterday was the handover of Suga Lifestyle Charities Ltd.’s sponsored donation to Rotaract Club of New Kingston’s Stationery Drive.

Reading and Colouring books along with Stationery & School supplies were donated to the Glenhope Nursery & Pre-School in Richmond Park Kingston, off Maxfield Avenue.

Many Projects have been delayed during the pandemic, so even though it was hard to hear the kids in a building nearby and not be able to talk or play with them, the genuine feeling of joy expressed by Glenhope Nursery’s Procurement Officer, Ms. Walters was priceless.

We’ll be back THIS year 😊💖

#tbt to the AWARD-WINNING ‘Hands in Art’ Art-tivity Project with Suga Lifestyle & Rotaract Club of New Kingston!

Earlier this year in February 2020, ‘Hands In Art’ was a Suga Lifestyle & Rotaract Club of New Kingston (Ig: @nkrcjamaica) Arts and Entrepreneurship Initiative with Lister Mair/Gilby High for the Deaf. The Project also had the support of e-Learning Jamaica Ltd. (Ig: @elearningja).

‘Impact Through Unity’ was Rotaract’s theme for the year, which inspired the majority of the Art pieces the kids were guided to create.

All proceeds from their sales and part proceeds of GW Art sales at Suga Lifestyle’s V-Day Pop Up Shop in February went towards the students’ educational resources and the school’s infrastructure. There is still a need for more funding, for instance, to supply classrooms with fans that are currently without.

Congrats to Rotaract Club of New Kingston for being recognized by Rotaract District 7020 for this meaningful project, placing 1st amongst different Carribean territories! 👏🏾🏆#SugaSnaps

I am grateful we were able to complete this project together before COVID-19.

Immediate Past President, Alex Robinson, recently handed over a Digital Thermometer to the Principal of Lister Mair/Gilby High for the Deaf, which they needed to proceed with their CSEC Exams.

Rotaract Club of New Kingston’s work continues with Lister Mair, as they also handed over 30 Face shields. Communication is mainly through lip-reading in the Deaf community, so it is important for them, especially the teachers, to use face shields instead of masks.

The Epiphany: Beyond Body for Suga Lifestyle’s V-Day Pop Up Shop this Saturday!

by Brand JamaicaCharitiesGW ArtWhat's Hot

20200205_060530_0000

Suga had an Epiphany! After over 2 years of testing various handpoured soy wax Candles from various artisans to find a special one other than Beryl + Blossom and Laura Alexis Candles, I found The Epiphany: Beyond Body. There were a few more suggestions to try, but Marsha-Lee Hutchinson’s branding, packaging and general presentation on Instagram grabbed me.

I tried her Coffee Candle (6oz) as well as the ‘Mi Rate Yuh!’ Blackberry with Vanilla (9oz) for Valentine’s. The Coffee candle when lit was strong the way I like it. The Blackberry and Vanilla was a bit faint when lit, but definitely soothing as more time went by.

20200205_060956

The Epiphany: Beyond Body is now a Suga Artisan and will have her handpoured Soy wax Candles, including the Valentine’s line on special, Chocolate and Coffee Body Scrubs too for great prices! She also offers Skincare products.

Look out for The Epiphany: Beyond Body this Saturday!

Suga Lifestyle & Rotaract New Kingston’s Art-tivity Project with the Deaf Kicks off to a great start!

Beyonce and Matthew paint their pieces after they completed their draft, as Matthew’s Mom looks on.

Part 1 of ART-TIVITY got off to a great start on Saturday! Suga Lifestyle (GW Art) in collaboration with the Rotaract Club of New Kingston is conducting an Art initiative with students from the Lister Mair/Gilby High School for the Deaf. They will be Painting, Tie-Dying, Jewellery making and learning customer service, marketing and entrepreneurship skills.

The children were quite excited and motivated, absorbing everything that was signed to them as they produced items from how they were guided. This project not only allows us to learn and communicate via sign language, but also aims to create awareness of the deaf community thereby reducing
stigmatization within the society at large. We want to create
new friendships through socialization and art and wish to inspire students to be more comfortable pursuing their dreams and goals without boundaries.
