Russo, City Manager City of Sunny Isles Beach 18070 Collins Avenue Sunny Isles Beach, FL 33160 Dear Mr. Russo: Jamaicans Abroad Helping Jamaicans At Home ("JAHJAH") Foundation is a NJ-based nonprofit organization, also registered in Jamaica, WT. Our primary goal is to help improve the quality of healthcare that is delivered at public hospitals and health centers in Jamaica. We are also committed to assisting with improving education in Jamaica. As our name suggests, we are about partnerships with Jamaicans and friends of Jamaica overseas to execute our mission on the ground in Jamaica. The JAHJAH Foundation donates medical supplies and equipment to public hospitals and healthcare centers in Jamaica. We also share information and technology with healthcare professionals in Jamaica's public hospitals and health centers. Best practice and proficiencies that are taught to our members who are healthcare professionals in the US, Canada, and the UK are shared with healthcare professionals in the public sector in Jamaica. Our 'Mission for Change' involves annual projects and short-term projects. Donations are of great help for those we help. JAHJAH Foundation is requesting defibrillators that we can distribute to the various facilities throughout Jamaica. The defibrillator, used to revive patients with a heart condition, is a much-needed equipment in the schools across the island. Plans for training in the equipment's use are also being scheduled. Attached is information about the foundation and a copy of the Foundation's 501c3. For More information, please visit our website www jahjahfoundtion.org REVISITNG !
