Right Now For Jamaica’s Inaugural Gala was more than an event—it was a powerful gathering of community, compassion, and commitment to rebuilding lives after Hurricane Melissa.

Together, we raised critical funds to support recovery efforts across Jamaica—restoring hope, dignity, and opportunity where it’s needed most.

We were also proud to honor Ambassador Audrey Marks with the inaugural President’s Award, recognizing her extraordinary leadership, service, and unwavering dedication to Jamaica and its people.

💛 The work continues. The mission grows. And Jamaica rises—stronger, together.

Let’s hear it for the gentlemen… 🖤

The men of the RNFJ Gala showed up with intention—and style that spoke before they even said a word. From tailored tuxedos to bold, modern suits, every look was a masterclass in sophistication.

This was more than dressing well—it was presence, confidence, and excellence on full display.

Sharp. Refined. Unforgettable.

To the gentlemen who stepped into the room and owned it—RESPECT. You didn’t just attend the gala… you elevated it.
