You don’t have to have a lot to give a little: A Few Back to School Charity Initiatives

“The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.” ― Mahatma Gandhi

Giving back is a huge thing to me. I am by no means rich but I don’t allow that to prevent me from helping others who are less fortunate.

It’s almost back to school time & a few organizations I am affiliated with are doing their best to help a number of children go back to school in September. Check out the flyers & contribute wherever you can.

  1. The Kingston & St. Andrew Baptist Association Youth Arm is currently collecting items to donate to the 9 Early Childhood Institutions which are affiliated with churches within Kingston & St. Andrew.
