Who We Are
Professional Jamaicans for Jamaica, Inc. is a 501(C)(3) Tax Exempt Organization created to work on behalf of the success of Jamaica and Jamaicans by serving the communities that are challenged socio-economically, politically, and environmentally. Professional Jamaicans for Jamaica, Inc. promotes education as its mantra, specifically targeting children of single mothers as well as single mothers themselves, and assists with equipping them with the tools necessary for personal and professional development. This, we hope, will ensure we contribute to the creation of a nation of independent, free thinking, and liberated Jamaicans, who are capable of making choices that will enable them to live their best selves.
This organization will, among other things, provide scholarship opportunities to high school students who are faced with economic hardships; provide entrepreneurship training for self-reliance; and offer personal development workshops for single mothers. Professional Jamaicans for Jamaica, Inc. will be successful in this effort by forging partnerships with corporate entities and local high schools in Jamaica.
Professional Jamaicans for Jamaica, Inc. will work closely with all Jamaicans to reassert a sense of hope in the future for all. Only through these collective relationships can a sense of individual responsibility be re-established that will create among other things, a commitment to our youths to follow through on their path to adulthood, with a true sense of pride and accomplishment. To accomplish this goal, our young people must be in caring, inclusive learning environments that demand their best efforts while encouraging and reinforcing personal and collective responsibility and respect.
Professional Jamaicans For Jamaica, Inc. will create programs that are in direct response to the growing number of young people that are either falling through the cracks at school, because of lack of funds to pursue their goals, coupled with post high school graduation syndrome of no hope to further education at the university level. The goal is to identify students who excelled scholastically in high school and who lack the financial support for continuing education, which may lead to pitfalls that can derail their lives. The focus is slightly different at each level, high school and university, but the goal remains the same; empower the young person to make positive changes in his/her life.
Professional Jamaicans for Jamaica, Inc. will focus primarily on high school students and less fortunate single mothers, with the hope that within a reasonable projected time frame, there will be a positive change in their thinking towards hope and progression.
Over time, Professional Jamaicans For Jamaica, Inc. will create a learning environment that will be an invaluable resource to young people, aspiring mentors and the community at large.
