Construction giant M & M Jamaica Ltd has donated much-needed masks to front-line healthcare workers at the Black River Hospital as well as care packages to approximately 500 households in Kingston and St Elizabeth to aid in COVID-19 relief efforts.

The company, with its head office in Kingston, donated disposable masks and food packages valued upwards of $500,000 for distribution through Speculation Apostolic Church of Jesus Christ and All Souls Anglican Church in St Elizabeth as well as Tarrant High School and the Church of the Ascension outreach programme in Kingston.

The communities to benefit are Pond Pen, Spring Park, Speculation, Cambridge, Brompton, Fyffes Pen, Shrewsbury, Luana, Oxford, New Town, and Killmurry in St Elizabeth, along with Jacks Hill, St Andrew, and Tarrant in Kingston

According to Nicola Morris, administrator at the Black River Hospital and directors’ warden at the All Souls Anglican Church, the donations are timely and will greatly benefit the over 300 staff members at the type ‘C’ hospital as well as hundreds of Jamaicans who have lost their source of income due to COVID-19.

The principal of Tarrant High School in Kingston, Major Paul Hall, says the school plans on targeting the donations to children on the Programme for Advancement Through Health and Education (PATH) who are now out of school.

M & M Jamaica Ltd has had a long-standing relationship with the parish of St Elizabeth owing to its founder and Managing Director Donald Mullings being a son of the soil.
