Distributing digital devices to schools in Jamaica

It's been a busy 2 weeks. I went to Jamaica to help off load a 40 ft. container and distribute school supplies to 15 schools across 9 parishes spearheaded by Cornwall College old Boys Association's Mid-Atlantic Chapter. I am immensely proud and grateful to the men of the Mid Atlantic chapter for always collaborating with Having Purpose so together we can have greater impact.

Having Purpose also donated supplies to Denbigh High School, Clarendon College and Cornwall College.
Cornwall College was provided with saws as well to help remove debris, keyboards, etc.
See attached pictures for the distributions to Denbigh High and Clarendon College.

Principal Ms. Daley of Denbigh High School in Clarendon, Jamaica sent us pictures of the computer labs showing the 30+ all in one computers that www.havingpurpose.org donated to them a few months ago.
Now she is requesting 35 wifi extenders so they improve service across their campus to increase access for students. We invite you to donate to purchase these ubiquiti wifi extender products each cost around $100 if we can get them used.

Last weekend on April 18, 2026 Cornwall College Old Boys Associate Mid-Atlantic chapter aka CCOBAMA, JAMLEO and other volunteers rolled up their sleeves to pack a container of school supplies to sent to Jamaica. Having Purpose Inc. and Vacationing with Purpose donated 4 cordless saws to help schools continue to eliminate debris still stacked up from the hurricane, 20 wifi extenders for Clarendon College, 30 keyboards and 20 power cords to Cornwall.
All parties collaborating to improve education.

We want to send down more furniture and desks and chairs, so if you know of a school that is changing out their desks and chairs we are looking to support school in Jamaica who are still in need of furniture to replace items damaged by the hurricane. Especially if you live in Florida CCOBAMA this summer hopes to ship 10+ containers of school furniture to schools in need.
Please reach out if you can help with this effort to cover the cost of shipping or to donate items

We got a note from the computer teacher a few days ago from the village of Atanve in Ghana showing that the laptops that we gave them a few years ago are still being used to support students.
As always they need some more
So if your company is changing out their hardware please consider donating them to us so we can continue to address the digital divide in rural locations across Africa and the Caribbean.

The school block is built!... we have one major project to do that is to install the solar system.
Each classroom has STEAM pics and they are working on putting a world map on the back wall so that students can learn geography.

Thank you to all of you who contributed to this project to support the kindergarteners on Tasso Island.

We invite you to donate to the solar system.

UPDATE

HAVING PURPOSE ACADEMY, TASSO ISLAND SCHOOL PROJECT...

Our Kindergarten school block on Tasso Island is almost completed, the classrooms, teacher's lounge and tuckshop were build, the desks and benches for the classrooms were build and primed for painting. The painters are working on the interior walls. The 100 panes for the windows are being made.

The final leg of the projects is to put in the solar energy because the island does not have electricity, and we need brightly lit classroom for our students and teachers for optimal learning.

Then we need to put the STEAM murals on the walls and buy the black boards, white boards and other materials for the classrooms.
Please visit the link below to donate. We are trying to reach our goal of $5,000. Our primary goal is to put electricity in the building. If 30 people give $100 each we can accomplish this goal this holiday season.

Thanks to all our donors who have contributed so far you have had a tremendous impact!
