We have worked with young single mothers with numerous children who have been motivated and are now able to change their lives and are venturing into gainful entrepreneurship. Some students had given up after misfortunes in their lives have been motivated to gaining the teacher's certification. We are fortunate and blessed to have an Executive Director in Jamaica, whose passion is to work and help the young people realize their goals by "Dreaming Big Dreams "All of our donations are directed to the program and the students. None of our Board members accept any form of payment. We all volunteer our time and skills with love and pride. Our ultimate goal is to help in building hope for the less fortunate. The more we can generate as funds will be our motivation to help in offering a better life for the underserved.
