PEACE and Love in Schools (PALS) has received a $500,000 donation from BIGGA to support the continued implementation of its Peace Ambassadors Programme at Kingston High School, as the organisation seeks to strengthen school-based conflict resolution and create a model that can be scaled to other institutions.

The donation will fund the ongoing engagement of a certified PALS trainer to work with Kingston High School beyond the initial training period.

The support is intended to help the school sustain the programme, train additional student peace ambassadors, and build the internal capacity needed for the initiative to continue as part of the school’s culture.
