The Sandy Point Primary School has been the beneficiary of some of these awards. As of 2012, SPBS expanded the cash scholarship to include the valedictorian from the Newton Ground and St Paul’s primary schools, bringing the total to three (3) primary schools valedictorian, attending the CEMSS, each receiving a $300 scholarship. We became a 501 (c) 3, non-profit US corporation in 2007. The Sandy Point Benevolent Society, Inc. is registered in the State of New York with corporate mailing address at 231-10 Lynden Blvd., Jamaica, NY 11411. Federal Tax deductible contributions may be sent to this address. The Sandy Point Benevolent Society hosts a variety of special events during the year, which help to raise money for the society. Every year in September, several hundred people attend our Annual Awards Dinner and Ball. In April we host our Easter Taste of the Caribbean Breakfast and annually we conduct a raffle. Commencing in 2013 provided our first annual scholarship to a needy past student from the CEMSS, formally the SPHS, studying anywhere in the world. Anyone can donate to our Scholarship Fund. We are also continually recruiting new members. More information on becoming a member is available at www.spbsinc.org.
