Grateful to Agape International for this recognition

The Agape International Award 2019

One Love International (OLI) is pleased to bestow on Mr Devon Harris and Keep On Pushing Foundation the Agape International Award 2019 for Educational Development and Youth Enhancement.

Harris was born and bred in Olympic Gardens, a violent part of Kingston, Jamaica. However, he did not allow his tough environment to limit him. His positive attitude and never give up but to keep on pushing philosophy has carried him through many tough times in his life. He graduated from the prestigious Royal Military Academy Sandhurst in England and received a Queen's commission in December 1985. Moreover, he served in the Officer Corps of The Jamaica Defence Force until he retired as Captain in December 1992.

Furthermore, Harris is an original member of the 1988 Jamaican Bobsled team and served as captain on two occasions. The 3-time Olympian achieved his dream and is now helping to develop the next generation of bobsledders.

Driven by his conviction and passion for youth development, Harris consequently founded The Keep On Pushing Foundation in 2006, which is a non profit charity focused on helping children in disadvantaged communities receive a quality education. Most of their efforts are focussed on enhancing and uplifting the youth of his homeland Jamaica.

Harris is also a powerful international motivational keynote speaker and has positively impacted and inspired thousands at many Fortune 500 companies, non-profits, governmental organizations, schools and universities.

At the heart of his message are the lessons he has learned on the power of persistence in the presence of numerous obstacles to persevere and live the best life possible. His message is that we can all keep on pushing no matter what to have the most rewarding personal and professional life possible.

Once again, Kudos to Mr Devon Harris and his Keep On Pushing Foundation for their undying commitment to inspiring and uplifting the next generation of youngsters.

The Keep On Pushing Foundation

The Keep On Pushing Foundation is a federally recognized 501(c) 3 non-profit organization founded in 2006 by former Jamaican bobsled team captain, Devon Harris. The foundation was started as a result of Devon's commitment to do whatever it takes to nourish the bodies and minds of the children in his old neighborhood-the Olympic Gardens area of Kingston, and elsewhere around the world, as Devon firmly believes they have the same potential for success as he did.

Our Mission: To support and enhance the education of kids in disadvantaged communities by providing practical solutions to the challenges that are preventing them from receiving a good education.

VISION: We envision a world where every child-even those from the most economically depressed areas-is filled with hope and given the opportunity to reach their full potential in all areas of their lives.
