Executive Director’s Message 2018

July 6, 2018 in AFJ Happenings
Executive Director’s Message 2018

Dear Friends:

We are happy to share highlights of our work over the past year. We choose to focus on helping to sustain programs in Education, Healthcare and Economic Development in Jamaica. Education is a ticket to a better future for many who have a dream but limited access. Improved healthcare can be a matter of life or death and we take our role to help build a better Jamaica seriously.

I am proud of the progress we have made together. The AFJ continues to gain more traction as is evident by the increase in grants year on year. More and more, we are called to steward funds on behalf of donors to direct their donations to specific causes. Transparency, compliance and accountability are paramount in our operation.

I am humbled by the remarkable change agents who work to make an impact in Jamaica. We have sought to support these leaders to shine a light on their vision and raise up their efforts across a diverse field of programs.

Thank you for your partnership, support and insights. We will continue to count on your support and look forward to seeing you at our 2018 Hummingbird Gala in New York on Friday, October 26th.

Happy Summer 2018!

Best regards,
Caron
