Help Restore Hampton School: A Legacy Worth Preserving

For 167 years, Hampton School has stood as a beacon of excellence in Jamaica—shaping generations of leaders, thinkers, and changemakers. But today, the very walls that nurtured so many are in urgent need of care.

The Munro Hampton Infrastructure Fund (MHIF) is calling on alumni, friends, and compassionate donors to help us restore and maintain the physical infrastructure of Hampton School. Your donation will directly support annual repairs and renovations that the Jamaican government simply cannot fund at scale.

❤️The Challenge

Despite its rich history and national significance, Hampton School receives only $5,000 USD annually from the Government of Jamaica for infrastructure maintenance. With aging buildings, historic dormitories, and a chapel designated as a national heritage site, the true annual need is $100,000–$200,000 USD.

Without intervention, we risk:

• ️️ Leaking roofs and deteriorating dormitories

• Crumbling sports fields and courts

• Peeling walls and outdated plumbing

• Failing water tanks and harvesting systems

• ⛪Structural damage to the chapel and auditorium

These aren’t just buildings—they’re the backbone of a school that has shaped lives for nearly two centuries.

The Solution

MHIF is a registered Canadian charity dedicated to raising infrastructure funds for both Munro College and Hampton School. We work hand-in-hand with the Hampton School Board and the Munro & Dickenson Trust to submit formal budget requests and manage donor-funded projects with full transparency.

Every dollar you give is:

•☑️Tax-deductible in Canada and the USA

•Backed by annual CRA-compliant financial statements

• Tracked with project-specific cost control reports

•️Used exclusively for infrastructure repairs and upgrades

We’ve partnered with CanadaHelps.ca and are now asking Canadian Donors to consider making donations via the CanadaHelps link below. Canadian resident donors will receive a CRA compliant Charitable Receipt via e-mail immediately after a donation is made. Canadian donors who choose the monthly donation option will receive one consolidated charitable receipt at year-end.
