I'm NY born but as most people know my parents and family are from Antigua. As with most folks with island roots we give back. It's what we do to keep that link to those who are still back home: you send money; you load up the super sized barrel with care products and items for the family a few times a year. I know you all know the drill.
This month I've linked up with my Toronto based Blogtalk partner Telisha to aid with Jam 4 Jamaica.
This party for a purpose takes place Saturday April 21st at The Sheraton Centre Hotel, City Hall Ballroom in downtown Toronto. The J4J Team is looking to raise funds to provide education scholarship to 10 children from the Riverton community in Kingston. These students were identified by Student Crossing Borders Organization as children in need on a waiting list to receive scholarship to farther their education.
Jam 4 Jamaica is here to do its part. This is the 2nd Annual Fundraiser of what looks to be a long running successful cause.
For those who will be in the T-Dot area and are looking to attend the event get more info here

For those of you that cant make it but are looking to aid via donation I will updating very soon with the paypal donation info.
