KINGSTON, Jamaica — As communities continue to recover from the effects of Hurricane Melissa, LASCO Financial Services has stepped forward with a $50,000 donation to the Greater Change Foundation, supporting the organisation’s upcoming back-to-school initiative aimed at helping affected children prepare for the new academic year.

The donation was presented on Friday, July 17, by Samantha Fuller-Maragh, brand manager of card services at LASCO Financial Services, as part of the company’s ongoing corporate social responsibility efforts to support vulnerable communities across Jamaica.

The Greater Change Foundation, a registered non-profit organisation celebrating its sixth anniversary this month, has positively impacted more than 8,000 children through programmes focused on education, health, sports and youth development.
