    Macy’s helps local charity raise funds and awareness for providing scholarships, athletic support, health and community development in developing countries with a focus on Jamaica through the national “Shop For A Cause” charity shopping event 

    For the first time, Macy’s is partnering with LAMB Foundation and inviting customers to participate in Macy’s eleventh annual national “Shop For A Cause” charity shopping event, taking place Friday, Aug. 26 through Sunday, Aug. 28, 2016. Customers can begin purchasing shopping passes from LAMB Foundation now. Macy’s “Shop For A Cause” is a unique shopping event dedicated to supporting local nonprofit organizations’ fundraising efforts. Formerly a one-day initiative, this year Macy’s has extended “Shop For A Cause” to a weekend-long event. Since 2006, the program has helped raise tens of millions of dollars for charities throughout the country, and more than 5,000 charities signed up to participate last year.

    “At Macy’s, we believe in supporting the communities where our customers and associates live and work,” said Holly Thomas, Macy’s group vice president of cause marketing. “That is why we are so proud of Shop For A Cause, which has helped raise tens of millions of dollars for charitable organizations since 2006. With this year’s extension to a weekend-long event, we’re offering even more opportunity to support local and national causes, and thanking our customers with special savings at Macy’s.”

    Macy’s has provided LAMB Foundation with shopping passes to sell for $5 each, and the organization will keep 100% of the proceeds for every shopping pass that it sells. By purchasing a shopping pass from LAMB Foundation, customers support their goal of providing scholarships, athletic support, and health/community development in developing countries with a focus on Jamaica. Plus customers can enjoy spectacular discounts at Macy’s stores all weekend long from Friday, Aug. 26 through Sunday, Aug. 28, 2016

    Shop at any Macy’s during the event, and you have a chance to win $500 MACY’S GIFT CARD! All you have to do is fill out the form with your coupon while shopping and you could be a winner!!

  • LAMB Health Fair and Forum: Uniting Our Communities

    LAMB Health Fair and Forum: Uniting Our Communities

    BIRDS HILL!! CHATTEAU!! ROCK RIVER!! LONGSVILLE!! WHITE MARL!! CHANDLERS PEN!! MORRIS HALL!! MOORES!! PALMER’S CROSS!!

    It is time for us to work together to strengthen our communities.

    IT’S NOT A ‘ME’ TING… IT’S A ‘WE’ TING

    LAMB Health Fair is set out not just to provide health services, but to start the collaboration process between all communities.

     

    If there is a problem in Rock River, let’s all find the solution and way to fix it. If you need help in Bird’s Hill, it is our duty to work together to lend a hand.

    On Saturday, July 2nd at the health fair we are asking members from each community (from Rock River all the way to Palmer’s Cross- ALL communities in between) to sign up to be a part of our forum on Sunday July 3rd 9 am to 11 am.

     

    What is the Forum:

    After evaluation from our preliminary needs assessments done in February and March in different communities including (Bird’s Hill, Rock River and Moores) we listened to the needs you requested. We are putting together committees with representatives from all communities that can bring forth the issues and concerns we can address in 5 key areas:

    1. Healthcare Access and Emergency Transport:
      • Work toward build the clinic, ongoing health fairs/services through out the year, raising funds to have our very own emergency transport
    2. Environmental Health
      • Focus issues such as proper garbage disposal, acquiring proper water for the community, and other health hazards in neighborhoods
    3. Job Opportunities
      • Begin learning the avenues for job opportunities. Bringing back information to the community so that community members can get proper training for jobs
    4. Educational Opportunities
      • Spreading the knowledge of educational opportunities for children and adults throughout the neighborhoods. Acquiring money to help individuals with school fees, school supplies etc.
    5. Community Development
      • Building back out communities to have events throughout the year such as fun day, tournaments, reading days, talent shows, financial advising etc. This will keep our communities active and working together.

     

    On Sunday, we will begin brainstorming key issues in neighborhoods while working with foundations throughout Jamaica such as HEART for job opportunities and the Clarendon Health Department for Healthcare access and emergency transportation. We will lay grounds for regular meetings and projects to take place in each community as discussed and voted on by representatives in the meeting.

    We are in this together, We can’t do this without you.

     

    In addition, we have already secured our next location for LAMB HEALTH FAIR 2017.

    NEXT YEAR 2017 WE WILL HOST LAMB HEALTH FAIR AT ROCK RIVER PRIMARY SCHOOL!
