This year I wanted to send a special Christmas present to my kindred in Jamaica.
As you will know, 2024 has been a hard year for the Caribbean islands after being hit with 4 major hurricanes, Beryl and Milton being two of the most devastating.
I reached out to King Nick (Founder of the charity: JamaicaLifeNice) to see what the charity needs at this time and his answer gave me inspiration for the present I could give.
Nick and the team have been working hard to build a community soup kitchen in St. Elizabeth to make sure the poorest of the community are well-fed and supported.
They need around $1000 (just under £800) to get the materials (3 doors and 3 windows) to complete the soup kitchen.
So, I've decided to do a fundraiser walk from Tillbury Docks, Essex (where the HMS Windrush first landed) to Windrush Square in Brixton. That's a 10 hour walk!
Date: 21st December 2024.
I'd love for you all to join me in sending a Christmas blessing to JamaicaLifeNice and the community in St. Elizabeth.
Every likkle helps and 'every mikkle meks a muckle' so there's no donation too small. You can also join me for some of the walk too if you like :D.
Thanks for reading.
Much love!
Ryan
