ST ELIZABETH, Jamaica — Teenage mothers attending the Women’s Centre of Jamaica Foundation’s Santa Cruz, location in St Elizabeth are now benefiting from a safer and more secure learning environment following an investment by the JN Foundation in the construction of a perimeter fence and restoration in the facility’s rainwater harvesting system.
The initiatives, funded through the JN Group’s ISupportJamaica Hurricane Relief Fund, forms part of the foundation’s ongoing commitment to helping communities recover and build resilience in the aftermath of Hurricane Melissa.
In addition to the infrastructure improvements, the centre was also presented baby and personal care kits, educational kits and quilts through the JN Foundation’s partnership with Lutheran World Relief, a United States-based humanitarian organisation, providing much-needed support for the teenage mothers and their children.
