    WHY SHOULD YOU PARTICIPATE?

    Every child deserves an education and an opportunity to achieve their dreams. Our foundation has been offering educational scholarship and support since 2008.  In many developing countries K-12 is not free. Children have to pay tuition and purchase uniforms to attend. It is the goal of LAMB Foundation to ease the burden on families of students that excel in the classroom.

    2016 John Green Memorial Scholarship Match

    LAMB Foundation is delighted to invite you to the 2nd Annual John Green Memorial Scholarship Match.

    The 2015 Inaugural John Green Memorial Scholarship match saw over 50 scholar athletes representing approximately 14 different high schools across central Jamaica and Kingston. The quality of play was very good. The level of discipline on and off the field on the day was very high. That was aided by the presence of FIFA certified referees (Kevin Morrison and Staff) and coaches from several of the high schools to show up to support their players. The weather was a warm 85 degrees throughout the day with no rain. The facilities (picture below) were of a high quality. Below is a video taken during the 2015 match.

    January SAT Scholarship Recipients: Webster Pryce and Demacoye Maye

    January 2016 RecipientsCongratulations to Webster Pryce and Demacoye Maye who were were selected as recipients of the Naima A. Stennett SAT Scholarship. This scholarship was established to recognize outstanding students in the Caribbean who wish to take the SAT to attend College in the United States.

    Both Webster Pryce and Demacoye Maye both natives of Clarendon, Jamaica are past students from Denbigh High School and past participants of the John Green Memorial Match hosted by LAMB Foundation in Clarendon, Jamaica. They both have competed in soccer competition such as ISSA Dacosta Cup.

    Webster describes himself as hardworking and as someone who always does his best in everything he does.

    Demacoye states one of his favorite quote comes from Colin Powell: “A dream doesn’t become reality through magic; it takes determination and hard work” and those words kept him motivated.

    Both students have shown through your hard work and determination to be a student that LAMB Foundation wants to recognize and encourage to continue their athletic and educational effort. We at LAMB Foundation would like to wish them both continued success throughout their college career and on.

    New Scholarship Available Online: Naima A. Stennett SAT Scholarship

    Back in January of 2014, LAMB Foundation partnered with an existing scholarship, Naima A. Stennett SAT Scholarship. Read more about the scholarship in our last blog post about the scholarship.It has become an official merger of LAMB Foundation in which we are very excited to have an online application. This will enable easier access for those applying for the scholarship, and also more opportunities for new people to fund and support it.

    Scholarship Applications can be found here:

    More information about the scholarship and eligibility guidelines can be found here: 
    http://www.lamb-foundation.org/staging/3624/naima-a-stennett-sat-scholarship.html

    From Naima A. Stennett
    I am excited to be partnering with the LAMB Foundation in their pursuit in uplifting education athleticism. In support of student athletes aiming to continuing their education, I have established a SAT Scholarship Fund in 2014. In order to continue the effort of helping international student athletes excel both on the field/court and academically. This scholarship fund will provide scholarships that will cover the FULL cost of the standardized test for college admissions in the United States (SAT) so that they can have the option to receive athletic scholarships in the United States. 

Presently, there are no scholarships with this specific funding available to international student athletes.  Over 10 scholarships have been awarded to date and students have gone on to attend colleges in the United states including George Mason University, Florida State College and Bluefied State College. This is my way of giving back and to help those in need to lessen some of the financial burden of those individuals who have aspirations to play in the United States and further their education. Michelle Obama once said “…when you’ve worked hard, and done well, and walked through that doorway of opportunity…you do not slam it shut behind you…you reach back, and you give other folks the same chances that helped you succeed…” This is exactly what I want to accomplish with these scholarship, opening a door of infinite opportunities.

  • Congratulations to the 2014 LAMB Scholarship Recipients

    Picture

    We at LAMB Foundation would like to thank everyone who continues to make our scholarships possible. We look forward to another successful year in 2015.

    Consi Duvalier-Ruth-Ann Schoberg Achievement Scholarship
    This year’s recipient for the Ruth-Ann Schoberg Achievement Award has painted a portrait of excellence for herself. Since the initiation of LAMB Foundation Scholarships we have continually seen her name as a strong candidate at every grade level. This student has already in the last 2 years received 3 LAMB Scholarships from placing in the top 3 of her class in 2012 and 2013 and also being the top scorer on her Numeracy exam. This year she will walk away with two more from LAMB Foundation Scholarship, this being one. 

    One thing we do know from life and pursuing education is, if you are not willing to learn, no one can help you. If you are determined to learn, no one can stop you. You cannot be stopped!  In your essay to LAMB Foundation, you stated receiving this award would show that your hard work has paid off, well, Consi Duvalier, we would like to congratulate you and say, my dear, your work has paid off, but don’t stop here. The world is yours to conquer. Stay focused, and before you know it you will be holding the world in your hands.

    Deneisha Dawkins-Dorothy Williams Scholarship
    Dorothy Williams Scholarship is always a very hard task. This year’s recipient for this award is an ambitious young lady who poured her heart and desires into her essay. She is excited to learn and hopes to become a teacher one day. It was evident from her essay that receiving this scholarship was not just for the benefit of this young student, she had a heart that extends beyond her age. She cares to help her family, and her community. While this scholarship may only be able to help her through school, she refuses to let that be the reason she cannot reach back and help someone else in her position. This is the type of student that earns her way to success pulling someone else working towards the same goal. The reason she aims to be a teacher is because of that one special teacher Ms.. Brown whom though strict as she says, wants nothing but the best for her. Well, Ms. Deneisha Dawkins congratulations on receiving the Dorothy Williams Scholarship this year. We hope to hear more about your journey to becoming a teacher, and as you continue on don’t forget the proverb: “one good turn deserves another.”

    Cassandrann Dennis-  Duhany-Bell Alumni Award
    This year we started a new scholarship opened for students currently in high school, who are excelling in their studies. This year our recipient is no stranger to LAMB Scholarships. She has received 3 LAMB Scholarships awards in 2 years by placing top 3 in her class here at Moores Primary in 2012 and 2013. She was also the recipient of our Ruth-Ann Schoberg Achievement Awards in 2013. Now attending Denbigh High School she has finished her first year once again at the top of her class. She has now extended her extra curricular activities to 4H club and the netball team. You stated you wanted to make the members of LAMB Foundation proud, ever since we met you Ms. Cassandrann Dennis we have been proud. You are relentless and dedicated, and I am sure your friends, family, Moores Primary and community members are all proud of your great accomplishments. Congratulations Cassandrann Dennis. Hopefully with this award you will continue to excel.
