🍎🍽️ TWO FREE MEALS A DAY, FIVE DAYS A WEEK ❤️🇧🇿

As our children prepare to return to school, Project Jumpstart Belize is preparing too!

Since 2022, with the generosity of our donors and supporters, Project Jumpstart Belize has been blessed to support the Feeding Program at San Antonio Government School.

And I want everyone to understand something very important about this program:

We don’t only provide lunch.

Our children are provided with a light breakfast AND lunch—two FREE meals a day, five days a week. ❤️

And this program is NOT for a selected few. It is open to the ENTIRE SCHOOL. Any child attending San Antonio Government School who wants to eat at school is welcome to participate. No child is singled out or made to feel different. If you’re a student and you want to eat, there is a meal for you. 🙏🏽

As we enter the 2026–2027 school year, we are once again preparing our monthly food shipments.

Running this program takes tremendous planning behind the scenes. Each month we work from a planned menu, determine what groceries are needed, purchase and pack those items, and ship them to Belize ahead of time so they arrive before the following month’s meals begin.

I’ve attached one of our menus so our supporters can see the variety of meals we work to provide. We don’t want our children eating the same thing every day. We want them to enjoy different, nutritious meals throughout the month while giving them the nourishment they need to concentrate and learn. 🍎📚

As we begin another school year, we are welcoming anyone who feels it in their heart to become a weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly donor. Donations can be monetary or groceries.

Rice, beans, sugar, flour, canned goods and other grocery items all help. No donation is too small because every item contributes to another breakfast or lunch for our children.

To everyone who has supported this Feeding Program since 2022, THANK YOU! ❤️ You have helped make it possible for our children to receive two free meals, five days a week, year after year.

If you would like to become a donor for the 2026–2027 school year, please inbox Project Jumpstart Belize or contact me at 917-500-0923.

Every child. Every school day. No selected few.
🍎 Light Breakfast
🍽️ Lunch
📅 Five Days a Week
❤️ FREE and open to the entire school

Because sometimes helping a child succeed starts with something as simple as making sure they aren’t trying to learn on an empty stomach.

From all of us at Project Jumpstart Belize, thank you for believing in our mission and helping us build a brighter future for the children of Belize. Together, we are creating lasting impact—one child, one school, one community at a time. ❤️

A Message from Our President & Founder, Janice Jacobs Palmer on the recent Renovation Project of a School Kitchen and Cafeteria at SDA LADYVILLE PRIMARY SCHOOL, BELIZE

07/17/2026

Ordinary People. Extraordinary Impact. 🇧🇿❤️

This project is a powerful reminder that when ordinary Belizeans come together with one purpose—to serve our children—extraordinary things happen.

On behalf of Project Jumpstart Belize, we extend our deepest gratitude to Mr. & Mrs. Molina, who traveled from the United States to Belize—not for recognition, but to serve.

Mr. Molina, an experienced contractor, answered the call without hesitation. After assessing the school, he simply said:
“Ms. Janice, all I need you to do is get the paint here on time.”

We did our part—and he and his wife did the rest alongside the volunteers given to us by the School Mr Chi and his two sons to assist Mr. Molina.

They not only volunteered their time and expertise, but also generously donated the kitchen cabinets, helping transform the Seventh-day Adventist Primary School kitchen into a cleaner, safer, and more uplifting space for the cooks, teachers, and children.

────────

To every donor who supported our Paint Drive—thank you.

Every dollar you gave became part of something much bigger than paint. You invested in hope, dignity, and a healthier learning environment for Belizean children.

We also extend heartfelt appreciation to the Principal and especially Assistant Principal, Mrs. Tashira Wagner, whose dedication and collaboration from the very beginning helped turn this vision into reality.

────────

Above all, we give all glory and honor to God, who continues to bring the right people together at the right time. This is His work, and we are grateful to serve.

This renovation was not funded by large corporations. It was made possible by ordinary people with extraordinary hearts who believe our children deserve better.

That is what Project Jumpstart Belize stands for—bringing people together to create opportunity, inspire hope, and build brighter futures.

────────

But our work is not finished—and time is running out.

Yes, the kitchen and cafeteria have been renovated.
But we must fully furnish the space before school reopens on August 31st.

Without tables, chairs, and essential equipment, the space cannot serve the children as intended on day one.

────────

🚨 URGENT NEED
We are still raising funds for folding tables, chairs, and remaining equipment—and we must secure these funds immediately.

🚢 CRITICAL TIMELINE
Our shipment leaves next week. Missing this window could delay delivery and leave the children returning to an unfinished space.

────────

This is why your support right now matters.

If you believe in creating positive change and making a lasting impact on the students of Ladyville Seventh-day Adventist Primary School, we ask you to give today.

Every donation—no matter the size—brings us closer to the finish line.

Together, we are proving that ordinary people can accomplish extraordinary things when united for a common purpose.

Please act now. Help us meet this deadline. Help us complete this mission for the children of Belize.

We are not just renovating a building—we are building hope, creating opportunity, and changing lives, one child at a time. ❤️🇧🇿

🎓✨ Congratulations, Class of 2026! ✨🎓

On behalf of Project Jumpstart Belize, we proudly congratulate the outstanding graduates of San Antonio Government School in the Corozal District on reaching this incredible milestone.

Today marks the end of one chapter and the beginning of another. To our preschool graduates, keep dreaming big. To our middle school graduates, step into high school with confidence, determination, and the courage to chase your goals.

We are especially proud that every student is moving on to high school—no child has been left behind. That achievement reflects the hard work of the students, the dedication of the teachers and parents, and the strength of a community that believes every child deserves an opportunity to succeed.

At Project Jumpstart Belize, we remain committed to empowering youths for a brighter future. Our partnership with San Antonio Government School does not end here. We will continue investing in education, providing resources, and creating opportunities so every child has the support they need to succeed in high school and beyond.

Dream big. Work hard. Believe in yourself. The sky is not the limit—it is only the beginning.

A special thank you to Principal Sucely Hill and the dedicated teaching staff of San Antonio Government School for your unwavering commitment to excellence. Your passion, leadership, and dedication have helped shape the lives of these young scholars and contributed to the success of every student moving forward. Thank you for believing in your students, inspiring them to achieve their best, and proving that when educators and communities work together, lives are transformed. We salute you for your outstanding service and look forward to continuing our partnership as we empower the next generation of Belizean leaders. ❤️🇧🇿

Congratulations once again, Class of 2026! Your future is bright, and we can’t wait to see all that you will accomplish. 💙🇧🇿
