A Message from the Executive Director

August 23, 2016 in AFJ Happenings
A Message from the Executive Director

Hello Friends:

This has been a good year for the AFJ. With your support, we have continued to build on a strong legacy for consistent giving in Jamaica. A total of twenty-four programs in education, healthcare and economic development were funded during the 2015-2016 grant cycle. Our well executed annual fundraisers were supported by esteemed honorees and compatible sponsors. By focusing on the interests of our donors, demonstrating credibility and transparency as a nonprofit, we have continued to fulfill the expectations of our partners and supporters. Through a stringent monitoring program on the ground in Jamaica, we are able to produce tangible results or identify when adjustments are necessary. This mix of initiatives has made for a successful year of supporting important projects.

We are committed to offering quality service and improving accessibility to our donors and grantees. We invite you to experience our new website functionality. Explore the donation options by going to the “Ways to Give” tab, i.e., Donor Direct, Discretionary or the Endowment Fund.

Finding innovative ways to connect with you our donors to help achieve your goals for philanthropy in Jamaica is our priority. Thank you for joining us on this wonderful journey to do good.

Many blessings,

Caron Chung
Executive Director
