Zoria Lewis, Student, Mount Waddy Primary School, Friendship, Jamaica
April 14th, 2014 was a very special day to me because Michael Folkes explained to the Mt Waddyians how he would help us with our school fees, lunches and books. This Foundation will make me maintain my grades and become more focused and develop much more in my work. This Foundation will help my mother a lot with my school fee and sending me to school. This foundation is like a gift to me. It will make me proud and not just me but my family too, as well as my teachers who have helped me from grade one through to grade six and teaching me right from wrong. This is a chance for me to shine and to become a better person in life.
Irran Brown, Student, Mount Waddy Primary School, Friendship, JamaicaMIC has made a wonderful change in my life. It has made me improve in my work and to be a better person. This Foundation helps children with their high school fees through a scholarship and gives supplies to the school. They are also giving away tablets for your studies and much more. The Foundation was launched at the Mt. Waddy Primary School. They treated the students and gave us t shirts too. When the treat was over we all took pictures, and they were published in the newspaper and sent to other countries.
Educational Assistance Programs
Focused on Michael's own primary school in Friendship, Jamaica, the Educational Assistance Program is joined by Miss Inez Hawthone, Principal of Mount Waddy Primary School.
The Foundation will provide assistance with tuition fees and the provision of educational resources to deserving students to enable them to meet their financial obligations throughout their educational pursuit from elementary through college, thus removing financial barriers to achievement.
Teachers at the school will also benefit, as the Foundation provides educational resources to include, but are not limited to, books, computers, printers etc. so that teachers can enhance their teaching and the students have a competitive platform from which they are technologically up to date in their quest for knowledge.
