Western Society For The Upliftment Of Children, Montego Bay, Jamaica

The Western Society for the Upliftment of Children seeks to develop a sustainable programme that will assist the marginalized youth of our communities to achieve their full potential: physically, emotionally, socially and spiritually.

Vision: A guiding light to the future of drop-outs, marginalized street and working children is this exemplary agency called Western Society for the Upliftment of Children.

As a part of our effort we offer up-to-date numeracy and literacy modules along with Sewing, Craft, Carpentry and Electrical Installation as part of our pre-vocational areas. In addition we offer blazing trail Interior Decorating, Barbering, Information Technology, Cosmetology and Videography as part of our special evening program.

Our noble and efficient staff has reached the ultimate zenith through hard work, dedication and commitment despite the limited resources.

Sports programs keep youth connected to friends, builds character, and fosters positive socialization skills. A donation of $50 purchases supports supplies for these activities.

The UAP works to develop the physical, cultural, and social development of inner city youth. Help change risky & violent behavior among these children by supporting the Kidz Summer Camp. A donation of $100 will send four kids to camp this summer.

Playground toys and after school play activities that are so common in developed countries are in short supply to disadvantaged children in Jamaica. Won't you brighten a child's day by donating $50 for the purchase of after school materials?

Exposing our nation's youth to computer technology is an educational objective in dire need of support. Your donation of $100 goes towards the purchase of educational software and the development of computer laboratories.

A UAP Marching Band reaches isolated children through music. Your donation of $50 allows one more child to participate in a special program designed to promote the self esteem of a handicapped youth.

Some families are hard pressed to afford clothing for their children to wear to school. A donation of $50 will allow for the purchase of enough khaki fabric to make four school uniforms.

Many disadvantaged children have one chance for a balanced meal when able to afford a school lunch. A donation of $25 will provide lunch for one child for a month.

Decrease illiteracy among adolescents by helping to purchase interesting materials that are in short supply. $25 will purchase critical books to keep inner city youth returning to a reading program.
